MotoGp, Fabio Quartararo under pressure: surprising gesture and turnaround

World Cup leader fAbio Quartararo closes Instagram profile, then reconsiders

Complicated moment for Fabio Quartararo, hounded by Pecco Bagnaia and forced to fight against eight Ducati riders in all the MotoGp Grand Prix. Now that Bagnaia is just two points behind, the pressure is mounting and on Sunday the French rider made a surprise decision to delete his Instagram profile.

A gesture for now still without explanation, but one that is an indication of the world champion’s current difficulties. After a few hours, Quartararo reactivated his profile, but without including his profile photo. In Buriram after seventeenth place Quartararo had seemed very dejected: “Nobody knows how I am really and not only in the last races, but from the first test in the winter, where you see that you have not improved at all. The race was a nightmare, now we have to reset everything.”
