The first winner of the Red Bull Rookies Cup in 2007 came within a race of claiming the 2010 125cc Championship before posting back-to-back successes in Moto2™ in 2015 and 2016 . He wowed the sport with a series of standout rookie showings for Tech 3 Yamaha in 2017 before growing increasingly frustrated with his ‘ Satellite ’ status the following year . 2019 was a deeply troubled season for the double World Champion after an ill-judged move to KTM . An early exit after the Grand Prix of San Marino put his career in doubt , but he secured a seat in Avintia Ducati aboard a Ducati GP19 on the back of three promising rides as a substitute rider at LCR Honda . A podium at Brno was enough to secure him a seat in Pramac Racing with a full Factory bike for 2021 , which Zarco justified by scoring four podiums . He stays put for 2022 and is the leading Ducati at the half-way stage of the season .
