QUALIFYING – AIR ASIA BRITISH GP

It was a good qualifying today at the Silverstone circuit for the WTR-Ten10 Racing Team rider Sturla Fagerhaug, who will start the race from the 17th place by setting a qualifying time that was three seconds behind the pole. The weather was sunny at Silverstone after a spell of rain in the afternoon.

However, it was not an easy qualifying session for Francesco Mauriello, who will start the race from 31st position. Fagerhaug set his best time in the last lap, which was a wonderful run for him. The weather was causing some problems during the practice yesterday and this morning after the showers, but it was nice again this morning.

Today’s qualifying session did not go as I wanted. This morning in the round of free practice we tried a different setting, which in the end we were not satisfied with and we went back to the original setting but I have not been able to find the right feeling. So today, I just hope that tomorrow’s race will run in the rain.

I am very happy. The bike is very good and I am starting to get the right feeling. I still cannot push as hard as I want but I spoke with my technical team and tomorrow we will make another small cycling step to continually advance. For tomorrow we are very confident that we can have a good race.
