Qatar crashes left Zarco feeling like an amateur
Johann Zarco has admitted that his crashes during his debut MotoGP weekend
with KTM in Qatar made him feel like he "doesn't know anything about bikes".
Johann Zarco承认在首次在卡达代表KTM登场的周末摔车，让他感觉自己像是"对机车一无
所知"。
While the Frenchman's target for his first race with the Austrian marque was
a top-10 finish, Zarco lined up 21st on the grid and went on to score a
single point in 15th.
Zarco had struggled in practice in particular, and crashed twice on Saturday,
once in FP3 and then in qualifying, which he said made him feel like he
didn't know what he was doing.
"I was disappointed a few times and really sad yesterday [Saturday] after my
two crashes," he said.
"It was cold and I was crashing like a rookie - not even like a rookie, just
like a guy who goes to a track and doesn't know anything from the bike.
"That made me sad, but today [Sunday] it's already deleted."
尽管这位法国人代表奥地利品牌的首战目标是前十名完赛，但却以排位21起跑最后15名作
收得到1分积分。
Zarco在练习时表现得特别挣扎，并在周六摔了两次，一次在FP3而另一次在QP，他表示这
让自己感觉不知道在做什么。
他表示:"昨天摔了两次车之后，我几次感觉失望而且真的很低落"。
"天气很冷而且我摔得像个菜鸟 - 连菜鸟也不是，我就是个完全不懂车的路人乱入围场"
。
"这让我很伤心，但我今天已经摆脱了"。
Zarco said that finishing 15th gave him a "symbolic point" for his debut with
KTM.
While he felt that KTM performed better than expected, the Frenchman also
"accepts" that the RC16 isn't a winning package right now.
"It's like a symbolic point, 15th position - it has been a hard race," he
added. "I knew I cannot have the package right now to make high performance,
but I know it, I accept and I push myself.
"I think even all the KTM, we got better ways than what we could expect. And
the gap [to the winner Andrea Dovizioso] at the end, 15 seconds, is not
ridiculous.
"It bring us some good vibes to look forward. It is part of the experience,
and 22 laps in a row, in the end it was the first time we do.
"It is really important to do it, and finish the race, because from that I
have now a factory team and that's the quality that during the two weeks they
will make strong analysis."
Zarco表示15名完赛给他代表KTM首次出赛"标志性的一点"。
他感觉KTM表现的比期待中好，但法国人也"同意"RC16现在并不是能胜利的战车。
"标志性的一点, 第15名 - 这是场艰难的比赛" 他补充道 "我懂自己现在拿不到能做出好
成绩的装备，但我面对它，接受(现状?)并且鞭策自己"。
"我想即使是整个KTM，(也觉得)我们表现的比期待中好。 距离[冠军Dovi]15秒并不绝望"
"这让我们对未来有一点好的期待，首次在赛道上的22圈会是经验的一部分。"
"(出赛)并完成比赛对我们非常重要，因为通过比赛我们成为一个厂队，而且接下来的两
个礼拜他们会对成绩作许多的分析"
Zarco's teammate Pol Espargaro, who finished 12th, said he had "mixed
feelings" about his result.
He highlighted KTM had more then halved its deficit to the winning rider in
Qatar since 2018, with the Spaniard finishing only 12 seconds behind
Dovizioso, but admitted the position is "not enough".
"We must be happy because the gap between us and first is minimal," said
Espargaro. "We’ve been really close, but at the same time we finish 12th.
Feels good, but also feels like not enough.
"When you are close you start to look at the top guys and you start to think
what’s going on and where we are losing such a small gap per lap.
"I think we are talking 0.3s or 0.4s per lap. It’s not much, but we are
losing it in some acceleration [zones], we’re spinning quite a lot, and
losing that small gap is painful."
Zarco的队友Pol Espargaro以12名完赛，他表示对这个成绩"感觉复杂"。
他特别提到KTM跟冠军车手的差距从2018到现在缩短超过一半(去年卡达站B.Smith
+31.704), 西班牙人最后仅落后Dovi 12秒，但他承认这个位置"不够"。
Espargaro表示: "我们应该对自己跟领先者的差距正在缩短而开心"。 "我们正在接近，
但同时我们以12名完赛。感觉很好，但是也感觉还不够。"
"当你接近了就会开始瞄准顶尖的家伙们，也会开始思考每一圈该怎样缩短差距。"
"我想我们说的是每圈0.3或0.4秒。不是很多，但我们在同一个加速[区域]中慢了，我们
严重打滑，而且丢掉那些关键的时间"
