FRONT ROW FOR ALCOBA AND RODRIGO AFTER LOSAIL QUALIFYING
#DohaGP Qualifying. Team Indonesian Racing Gresini Moto3 put together the perfect strategy in the final qualifying session of the GP of Doha as both riders were able to secure a prominent position on the grid for tomorrow’s second race of the season.
Jeremy Alcoba and Gabriel Rodrigo were third and fourth, respectively, but due to Garcia’s penalty they moved up on place and therefore will both line up on the front of the grid.
Last time Team Gresini saw both riders on the front row was May 5th 2018 (at Jerez Martin and Di Giannantonio locked up the top two). Tomorrow at 17:00 local time (GMT +3) Alcoba and Rodrigo will spearhead their attack on the first podium of 2021 with clear track ahead of them.
3rd – JEREMY ALCOBA #52 (2’06.158) – 2nd on the grid tomorrow
“I did not expect to put together such a quick lap. Track conditions were very difficult and my size surely didn’t help. Honestly I don’t know what to expect from tomorrow’s race, it could be a big battle or maybe somebody will be able to pull away… the only thing I wish is to be at the front and battle until the end.”
4th – GABRIEL RODRIGO #2 (2’06.346) – 3rd on the grid tomorrow
“It’s a front row without Parc Ferme but it’s good nevertheless. We have a good feeling with the bike and when we lapped on our own we were still competitive so I’m happy. To be starting at the front is surely important even though I expect the race to be similar to last week’s. We will try to battle for the win.”
