Monster Energy Yamaha racer, Fabio Quartararo, has learned to control himself because he experienced a dark period in MotoGP.

Quartararo is experiencing a decline in performance in the last two seasons in MotoGP.

El Diablo is having a hard time competing with its rivals at the front.

Even though Quartararo only tasted the peak of glory in his first four seasons on a Yamaha motorbike.

It was a sweet start for the French racer when he moved up to the premier class by joining the Yamaha Petronas SRT team.

Quartararo’s excellent performance during the two 2019-2020 seasons led to his promotion to the first team.

Unmitigated, El Diablo immediately succeeded in winning the world title in his first year with Yamaha Manufacture in MotoGP 2021.

Quartararo is even still able to compete to defend the world title one season later in 2022.

However, Quartararo’s performance declined in the second half of the season so the championship title fell into the hands of Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo).

Last season, Quartararo started to struggle and had to be satisfied with finishing the season in 10th place.

Quartararo scored three podiums by finishing third in the GP Americas, GP India and GP Indonesia series.

Meanwhile, Quartararo has yet to break the podium on Sunday this season. His best achievement was reaching the podium by finishing third at the Spanish MotoGP.

Quartararo is in 15th position in the standings with 44 points.

“If we all had the same bike… I would fight for the title, of course,” Quartararo said on the TwoJeys podcast as reported by BolaSport.com via AS.com.

“I know the capacity I have to win, how hard I train and how hard I work to be at the top.”

“I won’t give a definite position, but I will fight for the championship until the end, for sure,” said the 25-year-old rider.

However, Quartararo began to learn that he had controlled his emotions due to the series of minor results he had achieved so far.

In the podcast, Quartararo doesn’t even mind being called a bad loser.

“We fought for the title and now (there is a problem),” said Quartararo.

“At first, it was really bad for me, but I’ve learned to manage these emotions,” he said.

“Honestly, because last year was more complicated. I had more difficulties with the team.”

“In the end, when Yamaha chooses you to be number one, you have good moments but now there are more difficult moments,” said Quartararo.

Quartararo emphasized his commitment to fight until the end when he re-signed a two-year contract with the tuning fork team until MotoGP 2026.

Yamaha’s first project next season is to have a new satellite team with Pramac Racing which will also bring them back to having four bikes on track next season.
