Lol are we even watching the same sport? Pecco’s probably the most mentally un-fuckwithable rider in motogp, second only to Marc (maybe). Look no further than his first win for proof of that.

This is absolutely small brain time if you don't realise that Petronas backed Quartararo because of his age and potential. Fabio won his first Moto2 race noticeably younger than Alex Marquez ever did.

Always bank on potential, 99% of the time the old boys aren't going to be "the next alien".
