Fernandez lines-up 2nd on Moto3 grid for first 2020 race
MotoGP 2020 - Round 01, Losail International Circuit (QAT)
A typically busy set of Qualifying Practice sessions around the quick curves of the Losail International Circuit ended with Fernandez – provisional pole position holder after topping the classification on Friday – being denied 1st place on the grid by a mere eight-thousandths of a second. The nineteen-year old from Madrid managed to classify ahead of fellow #ktm riders Aspar Team Gaviota’s Albert Arenas and CIP Green Power Darryn Binder. SKY #racing Team VR46’s Andrea Migno (7th) and Red Bull #ktm Tech3’s Deniz Oncu – the Turk making his debut as a full-time member of the #moto3 field and for the French team’s new #moto3 effort – was 8th fastest.
The first #moto3 Grand Prix this season will commence at 14.20 tomorrow (CET) and run for 18 laps. If any of the #ktm fleet take the checkered flag then this achievement will mark the firm’s 100th Grand Prix win on tarmac. In Moto2 today Red Bull #ktm Ajo’s Jorge Martin was less than four tenths of a second from Pole Position and will fill the 8th slot on the grid.
Raul Fernandez: “For me and for the team this is very important. I am happy with the work we did because this morning I can do the [lap] time with the hard tire. For tomorrow, for the race especially, we will use the hard because my feeling is better. Now we’ll look forward to tomorrow; maybe this bike is the best that I have tried in #moto3.”
Races: March 8th, 2020 – #moto3 14.20 | Moto2 16.00 CET
