“I don’t know what is happening, I am confused and I struggle. Rossi? We have never spoken to each other, they are all immersed in their work ”

Franco Morbidelli shows a certain serenity and calm at the end of the day, despite the fact that on Saturday it left a bad taste in his mouth. Yes, because the ranking gave him the tenth time almost seven tenths off the top.
But it is useless to surround it: Petronas’ bishop is struggling, so much so that he seems like a distant relative compared to what was shown in last season’s finale. Franco himself is very sincere and honest in explaining the situation, without using too many words.
“I do not know what is happening – he started – even this saturday i didn’t understand much, i’m confused. Come on, let’s put it this way, I’m confused. The good news is that the worst day on the bike is better than when you are off the bike. Unfortunately I don’t have the sensations I want. I struggle, I cannot ride the Yamaha as I would like, and we are also far from the leaders. The fact is that I’m so confused that I don’t even want to get involved with the M1, because since I don’t have clear ideas, I don’t know which direction to take ”.
Franco’s words confirm the difficulties of the moment.
“My feelings have never been good and they have stayed more or less the same, despite trying to make some changes. Sometimes you feel a slight improvement and then you come back to the point. It is not an easy situation, we must try to stay lucid and analytical. Nor do I want to point a finger at certain aspects, such as tires, chassis or others, because it is really difficult to say that it is one thing and not another to blame ”.
So you wonder if Yamaha is giving you the right support.
“Several times I have asked myself why I am struggling so much and why I lack confidence, both in driving and on the bike. However, I have never asked myself questions about the support of Yamaha, also because I feel the presence of the members of the Chamber. The fact is that we grope in the dark, since unfortunately we do not know what is happening ”.
At this point, all that is left is to focus on Sunday.
“For tomorrow I will have to aim for the top ten. In FP4 the speed was not bad, so I hope to be fighting with the top ten. First of all, I hope the warm-up gives us some answers and then we have some feedback in terms of speed. “
If Morbidelli suffers, the environment is certainly no different than on the other side of the garage.
Okay and I have never spoken. I saw that he had problems in qualifying, which is a strange thing, but this is the situation. We are so immersed in our work that we never see each other. Either I am in my office or maybe I am in the box to understand what is happening ”.
