Petrucci after his victory: "It seemed that nobody wanted to place their trust in me". Morbidelli: “It seems that every time a mess happens, I’m there”: “Qualifying rounds went badly, and we still don’t understand why. When you start from behind, it’s easy to end up in the wrong place, and I ended up behind to avoid Valentino. Too bad Viñales: "It is a championship where you never have to give up". Another disappointing race for Vinales, who gambled on an electronics-free start: "In practice it went well without launch control, but not with the noise around it. This race will not count too much for the world championship: all in all I lost only one point from Quatararo Quartararo bitter and disappointed with ninth place finish in home race: "I was thinking about the World Championship in every moment. It was the first time in the wet and I finished ahead of Mir. I'm happy for Marquez, Pol and Petrucci ... who finished ahead of Dovi Rider of the day has to be alexmarquez73 - 18th on the grid to P2 in his first wet MotoGP race is just stunning. A loud reminder to all that he’s a 2x World Champion and not just the brother of marcmarquez93 Marc Marquez: All work has its reward! Each one fights for his goals with his own method, style and philosophy. The most important thing: fulfill those dreams! Congratulations brother, first podium in MotoGP with this great team!

MotoGP riders on the grid who have never had a wet race: Lecuona, Quartararo, Mir, Oliveira, Bagnaia, Binder, Marquez
Bagnaia: “At the first corner of the Le Mans GP, I ended up last”: “A rider braked earlier, and I had to slow down, but I learned here too.The choice of tires has nothing to do with today’s performance. I was much faster on Friday in wet conditions
Jackmilleraus Broken hearted when He drops out of the FrenchGP after a mechanical failure while sitting in P2
Petrucci feels that Le Mans win is a liberation, “a lot of people didn't believe in me": "I give 100% and I need the people around me to believe in me, last year it didn't happen. I was afraid that Alex Marquez would screw me over... like marc
alexmarquez73 is the first Honda Repsol rider other than marcmarquez93to appear on the podium in MotoGP since 26_DaniPedrosa, winner in Valence in 2017
Crutchlow: "It was like I couldn't tip the bike and when I did I fell down"

Alex Marquez: “Marc is on another level, but I would’ve attacked him at Le Mans”: “I hope he comes back soon. It’ll be fun to challenge him. I’ve received a lot of criticism and lots of it was right, but I’ve always been aware of what I’m worth.”

Pol Espargarò: “The best of the KTMs? I want to be in front of everyone.”: “At the beginning of the race, the Ducatis were unreachable. I only thought about the podium at the end. Now it’s fun, but I have to be more consistent.”
