Fabio Quartararo and Marc Marquez 'have a special effect' on their MotoGP rivals, according to Crutchlow.
"I had the chance to ride with Valentino, Lorenzo, [Andrea] Dovizioso, Dani [Pedrosa]," Crutchlow told Motorsport.com in an exclusive interview on Thursday at Circuit Ricardo Tormo when asked to compare Quartararo with the other MotoGP greats he has raced with."Marc and Fabio ride the absolute opposite, you can't imagine. But why I say that they have the same effect is they have the same effect on the manufacturer.
"And they also have the same effect on the other riders in the manufacturer. This is a strange statement to make, but they have an ability to crack their other teammates, or people in the manufacturer because nobody can do what they can do. "They take the positive and the strongest point of the bike where nobody else can, or their strongest point is the strongest point of the bike as well and it just works.
"So, they have that effect that they are just superior and I see that. I don't mean the Honda was the best bike either and I don't think the Yamaha was the best bike, but both of them managed to win world titles on something that was not [capable of winning the title]."That's why I think they've both got… they are completely different people, they're at completely different manufacturers and they ride completely different. But they have that special effect.
Crutchlow added:"What we have to remember is, Fabio has never ridden a different MotoGP bike and he's so talented., he's not riding around the problem. He understands the problem, he gets the problem."We need to improve the bike and the package for the riders. And they're [Yamaha] definitely taking it seriously.
