He engaged in a strong battle against his rivals, refusing to surrender until the very last inch of the race.

CASTROL Honda LCR rider Johann Zarco finished 21st in the Sunday race at the Red Bull Ring.
Since the start of the race, an issue with the engine's power delivery has been a challenge for Johann Zarco. However, the Frenchman's decision to stay on track, in anticipation of the forecasted rain, was a strategic move. Despite the rain not arriving, he crossed the line 21st. The team will now analyze the data to understand the issue better and ensure improvements for the next races.
