“When I could analyse my performance then I’ve been enjoying more with the team the good result of Jorge, and this made the Sunday evening quite okay," Zarco said after the Austrian Grand Prix. 
 
“For the motivation, is giving the right motivation because it confirms really the potential of the bike.
 
"I think it’s one of the best bikes, that can be all the time on the podium or can fight for it and even for the victory. So this confirmation helps Ducati riders to make the extra push."
