Fabio Quartararo confirms: he will try a Formula 1 car, like Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez

Fabio Quartararo in the footsteps of Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez: not in terms of the number of races won and titles-the Frenchman is still a long way off-but in terms of the dream of driving a Formula 1 car in the near future.

In an interview with the French TV program Quotidien, the transalpine driver admitted, “I’m trying to convince some F1 teams and some sponsors to organize a test. It is a dream to test a Formula 1 car.”

On the differences between the two disciplines, “You have to be in good physical condition. The race is longer in F1, but in motorcycling we move a lot. Our concentration level is very high and, like them, we have to be hyper-precise. As riders, we have many things in common. Little by little, our two disciplines are getting closer. The speed in the straights and also in the corners is very impressive. But so is ours.”
