Pedrosa storms to Spanish Pole with Marquez second in all-Honda front row

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Dani Pedrosa took a stunning pole position, his 29th in #motogp and the 47th in his career, edging teammate #marcmarquez by just half a tenth in a breath-taking battle for the top spot during the final minutes of the Gran Premio Red Bull de España in #jerez. Cal Crutchlow in third completes an all-Honda front row for the first time since the German GP in 2014 (at the Sachsenring).
Dani has led every session this weekend apart from today’s FP4, showing a competitive pace and dazzling speed in every condition. Tomorrow he will start from pole for the first time since Malaysia in 2015, and he’ll do so at the 3,000th Grand Prix of the world championship.
Marc made good use of the work he did on the setup of his RC213V, and after a fourth-fastest time in the morning’s FP3 session ensured him a direct passage to Q2, he posted the top time in FP4 and then fought hard for the pole in qualifying.
Race will start tomorrow 14h00 local time.
