Yamaha rider Fabian Quartararo will be looking to return to winning ways at the
German MotoGP title on June 20.
The French star finished sixth at the recent Catalan MotoGP on June 6 with his suit opened and without his chest protector, resulting in a three-second time penalty.
Prior to that, Quartararo had won the Italian MotoGP on May 30 and he will now be determined to secure a podium finish in Germany.

Miguel Oliveira of KTM won the Catalan Grand Prix and the Ducati duo of Johann Zarco and Jack Miller finished second and third respectively.
Despite finishing sixth in Catalan, Quartararo is still sitting at the top of the Riders' standings with 12 races left in the current campaign.
While Zarco and Miller are placed second and third respectively on the standings as the battle for this season's MotoGP world title continues.
Quartararo is 14 points above second-placed Zarco heading into the highly anticipated German MotoGP.

Quartararo took aim at the over-regulating of track limits after the Catalan MotoGP and he believes current rules are “taking out the fun” of racing.
“For the safety, the more there is the better it is. But we are getting into some things that I really don’t like, like Miguel [Oliveira] and [Joan] Mir in Mugello last lap," Quartararo said.
“They [exceeded] track limits, but it’s not track limits out of the kerb, it was the end of the kerb like Joe Roberts also in Mugello.
“It’s not giving any gains. The shortcut, I mean I don’t go through because I wanted to go straight."
Yamaha are placed at the top of Constructors' Championship standings and they are followed by Ducati and KTM respectively.
