BORMES LES MIMOSAS - Tech3 manager Herve Poncharal feels that his flagship rider, Johann Zarco, is having a tough time following the 2018 French MotoGP. The reason is he feels Zarco has a pretty high expectations of his second season in MotoGP.

His failure at Le Mans then made his confidence slightly lessened. It was quite an impact on the appearance of Zarco in previous races. Of the three races that he lakoni after mentas at Le Mans, seventh position in MotoGP Catalunya became the best achievement Zarco. While the other two races at Mugello and Assen, Zarco had to settle for the 10th and eighth respectively.

"At first it all seemed simple, then the accident came to Le Mans and everything was complicated. We have to admit that we are experiencing a situation similar to 2017, but vice versa. Because now all pay attention to Zarco, "said Poncharal as quoted from Tuttomotoriweb, Thursday (07/05/2018)

"Many people ask us what happens. But anyway, being in fourth position in the championship with a satellite bike is not a bad thing. Before we have an official Yamaha, our bikes have not been updated since Qatar. This is not a reason, but the situation is like that, "lid Poncharal.

However, Poncharal believes Zarco can re-find his performance nicely on his iron horse. Currently Zarco is still a satellite team racer with the highest points in the 2018 MotoGP standings.

Hafiz Syahrin's team-mate was ranked fourth with 81 points. Zarco is a strip under the Maverick Vinales (Movistar Yamaha) who occupy the third position with 93 points incision.
