After coming off the back of a challenging race in the Netherlands, Johann Zarco is now confidently geared up for the German GP.

The Monster Yamaha Tech3 team rider seeks to bounce back after the Assen battle just a few days ago and achieve his target of seizing a podium at the Sachsenring track this coming weekend.

“Sachsenring is an interesting track that is quite small, but there are a lot of left corners. I won the race there last year when it rained a lot, which is a nice memory. Of course, it will be great to have three days of clear weather this time but let's see what happens,” he said.

“I have a good feeling on the bike and I am happy about how the weekend in Assen went because I got the pole position and I was strong at the beginning of the race. I want to remain on this pace so that I can fight again, and have the opportunity to get on the podium in Sachsenring which would be fantastic to achieve before the summer break.”

The action gets underway today at 09:55 local time at the Sachsenring.
