A best lap-time of 2&#8217;03.479 set by the <strong>Federal Oil Gresini Moto2<\/strong>rider is some distance from the top riders, but with the race pace he showed on Friday, the Briton is looking forward to a great battle on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>With a warm-up still to take advantage of and with weather conditions that should improve (the forecast says cloudy but with no rain expected), the former World Supersport Champion is prepared for yet another comeback, with the 16<sup>th<\/sup>race of the season set to get underway at 12.20 pm local time (GMT+7).<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>15th &#8211; SAM LOWES #22 (2&#8217;03.479)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was a disastrous Saturday.

We worked well in the dry and we have a good pace, so I&#8217;m quite positive for the race.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sam Lowes\u00a0was 15th in today\u2019s Japanese Grand Prix qualifying after a difficult Q2 in mixed conditions.
