TEAM KÖMMERLING SHINES IN BRNO Q2  

It was a Saturday of great confirmations and pleasant surprises for Team Kömmerling Gresini Moto3 who in in the qualifying sessions for the fourth round of the season is able to claim an excellent second place on the grid with Gabriel Rodrigo as well as an incredible second row with Jeremy Alcoba.

The rookie of the team led by Fausto Gresini is putting together an impressive crescendo in his performance – as he went from being 29th in FP1 all the way to sixth place in today’s qualifying, after being seeded directly to Q2 following his 11th place in FP3. On a track that only 30 hours ago was known by the Spaniard only via gaming, Alcoba proved to be a quick learner and easy to adapt (not only on track).

A top-level performance also for Gabriel Rodrigo who claimed his second first-row qualifying of the season after the one secured in the Andalucia GP. The Argentine will try to battle for the first podium of 2020 on a track that he enjoys a lot. The Moto3 race at Brno will get underway at 11:00 local time tomorrow (GMT +2).

2nd – GABRIEL RODRIGO #2 (2’08.583)

“We solved the front-end issues that kind of prevented me to perform at my best especially in the second half of the race, and that made me struggle a bit here yesterday afternoon. This morning we took a bit of a wrong direction but we went back to a previous set-up and, once we solved this issue, things went the way we were hoping for. Tomorrow it will be a group battle and might be even tougher than in Jerez. We will try first of all to score as many points as we can and to stay with the leaders as long as possible, and the result will come by itself at some point.”

6th – JEREMY ALCOBA #52 (2’08.864)

“So happy. This morning we made a big step forward: we went out with a used medium tyre and a hard one at the rear and the bike was moving a lot, but I was already a lot quicker than yesterday. With a used soft tyre at the front I was already in the 2’09secs and then with new tyres we clinched the access to Q2. Then in qualifying I went out straight away with new tyres and it went well. We must stay focused and try to finish the weekend the best way.”
