Quartararo has not done much winning of l🌌ate, in fact, his last MotoGP victory came at the 2022 German Grand Prix at Sac😼hsenring.

Since🌠 then Quartararo has stepped on the podium just six times as Yamaha have suffered a fall down the pecking orde꧋r similar to Honda. 

But even when it was clear that Yamaha could not challenge, Quartararo’s mindset remained the same, whic𓂃h was that of someone who wanted to win.

“As﷽ a person I’m a winner,” said Quartararo when speaking on the MotoGP.com podcast. “I don’t want to just give up because this is something I will never do. 

“Even if we’re in a situation where we know we cannot fight for the victor🍸y, I always believe that I hav꧒e to fight for the victory. Maybe I will not.”

That said, Quartararo also ad𒊎mitted that the beginning of this season 𒊎resulted in him losing the element of fun.

Unable to con🌞sistently challenge at the front, especially when it came 🌠to qualifying, Quartararo admitted he was angered even after race weekends ended.

Quartararo added: “The𒁃 first part of the season I never accepted the position I was ending [up in]. T꧋his was making me super angry even after the GP. 

“I was home, disappointed and not enjoying life. But since mid-season I said ‘okay, whatever the result ▨is we have to enjoy it and as soon as the races finish switch off’. From February to July I was not enjoying it.”
