German GP MotoGP – Viñales (4th): "I am confident for the championship"

Maverick Viñales fails at the foot of the German podium but ends in front of his teammate Rossi and remains second in the general classification, just 5 points behind Marquez… Statements and Analysis.

Maverick Viñales, Yamaha Movistar (11th in qualifying and 4th in race) : "I am very confident for the championship. To start from 11th place and finish fourth, losing a lot of time passing other drivers and finishing very close to Dani (still almost 3 seconds when he was started in front of Pedrosa, editor’s note), that means we did a great job throughout the race. My impressions of the race are good, I gained as many places as possible and today it was until the fourth ".

"We’re pretty happy, we know we still have to improve the bike, but overall it was pretty good. Being second in the championship after Assen (where he had for the season, Editor’s note) is quite satisfactory, but if we compare to the period which followed Mugello (when he led the championship with Dovizioso, editor’s note) it is not as positive because we widened the gap in the championship ".

"We suffered a lot in Montmeló (, Editor’s note) and I made a mistake at Assen, but overall it’s okay, even with these errors we are still at the forefront (second in the championship in, Editor’s note). to continue like this we have to work a little more, especially in qualifying and in preparation for the race. We have all the cards in our hands to try to do a little better. I will try to improve my driving style and come back stronger and in better shape so the month’s break is great ".

Site analysis : This fourth place for Viñales, his best result since his second place in the Italian GP, ​​comes at the right time to pass the summer break in a positive dynamic. The young Yamaha rider, who had started by dominating the championship at the start of the season, gradually regains his "rank" and can indeed continue to think of a first world title.

But the championship is particularly open and Marquez (129 points), Dovizioso (123) and Rossi (119) can also legitimately consider becoming MotoGP world champion 2017 … As for, the key to this world title lies in the settings and balance of the new Yamaha M1, which still needs to improve regardless of the weather or track conditions…

Especially since after Pedrosa (5th with 103 points), the next in the provisional classification are the two riders of the private Yamaha Tech3 team, who ride on the 2016 model of the M1: Johann Zarco (84) and Jonas Folger (71)…
