"I couldn’t believe it when I went under 2m01s in Austin. This year, I managed to ride in 2m00s, nearly 3 seconds faster than what I was used to. It really shows how much Michelin’s performances has improved." Maverick Viñales
"The Michelin technician – is part of the crew inside the garage, because we work together and we try to understand what is the best." Miguel Oliveira
"Yeah well, for sure, trusting in a tyre I think is maybe 90 per cent of our job of riding, because tyres are so important. Also, you need to understand a lot the tyre, no? You need to know how it works – also every compound, it depends if it’s soft, medium, you have to understand really fast and for sure trust in it to be fast and it’s one of the most important things." Jorge Martin
"A lot of confidence with these tyres and I think that, since we have been with Michelin for a long time, we have always had this confidence but on this circuit, it is true that I had more." Fabio Quartararo
"In general, the biggest thing out of all the changes that you can make is if you change the tyre or the compound, it can make a world of difference, so I would say that the main thing is tyres at the end of the day. That’s where your performance is." Brad Binder
"What Michelin’s performance gives me is always consistency when I’m pushing. I know exactly what to expect. It’s very predictable, and it’s easy to manage the rear to stay competitive and fast. Of course, doing this in a race is not the easiest job, but it’s where you can make the difference." Francesco Bagnaia
