The good pace shown on the long runs on used tyres also bodes well ahead of a race that promises to be closely fought.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SAM LOWES (4th &#8211; 1\u201950\u201d333)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fourth position is a good result because it means that we can start the race very close to the front: our pace is already good, but tomorrow morning during the warm-up we will try to make some other small improvements on the bike. I expect a race with very fast lap times, but I feel good and I\u2019m confident: during practice I made several long runs on old tyres, keeping a good pace, so we believe we can enter into the fight at the top. Zarco and Luthi in particular are very competitive here, but we will be there!\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAUSTO GRESINI<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday Sam and the team worked really well: we saw a very tight Qualifying session, the lap times have dropped a lot and as a result it was definitely not easy to stay in the top positions, but we did it: the fourth fastest time puts us in a good position for the race tomorrow. As for the pace we are not far away and we think that we can make some more small step forward in tomorrow morning\u2019s warm-up. If we succeed we can fight with Zarco and Luthi. It won\u2019t be easy because they have proven to be very fast, but we will do our best!\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sam Lowes and the Team Federal Oil Gresini Moto2 will start tomorrow\u2019s Japanese Grand Prix from the second row of the grid, the 26-year-old British rider setting the fourth fastest&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23704,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21,23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-moto2-en","category-race-report-moto2-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
