I fought with Marc for the victory and we had a great performance. I especially showed that I can get on the podium, which is a super feeling and a big boost for my confidence. In the past, Johann had a lot of good races whereas I sometimes didn\u2019t because I made some small mistakes, but today I finally feel like I showed my potential. I think that we have to enjoy this moment and take the positive points that we made here to Brno and into the rest of the season. Thanks to my team for their work and I am already looking forward to getting back on my Yamaha in the Czech Republic after the summer break.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Johann Zarco<br \/>\nPosition: 9<sup>th<\/sup> &#8211; Championship: 6<sup>th<\/sup> &#8211; Points: 84<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/newsletter.teamtech3.fr\/userfiles\/image\/2017\/09-Sachsenring\/Zarco-Germany-Sachsenring-2017-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rtrsports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Zarco-Germany-Sachsenring-2017-3R-1.jpg\" alt=\"Johann Zarco - 2017\" width=\"267\" height=\"150\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"10\" vspace=\"5\" \/><\/a>\u201cOverall, it was a great race for me today in Germany. On the first day, I felt good but then the weather made things difficult on Saturday and I had a crash in FP3, which complicated matters so in the end, I started from 19th. Yet, I kept calm and I managed the GP lap by lap, which allowed me to overtake my opponents. I saw that the other riders started to struggle and I was stronger so I thought that I could almost take 7th and 8th but they were a bit too far in front. It is difficult to overtake here at Sachsenring but I did my best even if it was tough to be at the back of the group. However, I am happy because it has been a great experience and we are leaving this Grand Prix, for the summer break, in a positive way. I am also very pleased with what Jonas did. In the race, he was so good and it was great for our team and for him so overall, I am happy for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>German GP 2017 Race Results<\/h2>\n<div
