Marc Marquez clinched a fantastic pole position today, his third in a row in Argentina, while his Repsol #honda teammate #danipedrosa posted a very close fourth-fastest time to put him on the second row.
Marc had already set the pace in both FP3 and in FP4, during which he alone had managed to lap under the 1’40 barrier. That session was red-flagged twice after Scott Redding suffered a rear-tyre issue that is still under investigation by the Michelin technicians.
Two laps into the qualifying session, Marc set the fastest time of the day at 1’39.411. He suffered a small crash during his second attempt, and although he was uninjured, he was unable to lower his mark. Dani steadily improved his pace throughout the course of the day and missed a front-row spot by less than a tenth of a second, setting the fourth-best time of 1’40.011.
The race will start tomorrow at 4:00 p.m. local time
