Comments
Marc Marquez
1st – 1’37.683
“Today I really felt good on the bike and I am happy to have taken pole position! In the morning and in FP4, we worked a lot with the used tyre and this afternoon we obviously focused on qualifying. I put in a very good lap and I think that tomorrow it will be interesting to see which tyre will be required for the race, because there are various options for both the front and the rear – it is going to be a difficult choice! One of the keys for the race will be tyre management, in order to try to get to the end with optimal grip – which will allow us to make the difference”

Dani Pedrosa
3rd – 1’38.651
“Qualifying did not go perfectly. I wasn’t as fast as I wanted to be and I know that I made a few mistakes – especially on the final corner – which hindered me a lot. However, I’m happy, because the important thing is that we had some good practice sessions. We are high up the grid for tomorrow, so we shall try to make the most of this and have a good race”

Thats the Press Release from the Repsol Honda Team, the front row filled with all spanish row, will it become all spanish podium? If it happens, MR do hope that it will be a dog fight winning, not an easy single running winning. And hope Jorge not replay that idiot jump start again!!
