Honestly, I wasn\u2019t expecting this result. I was struggling a little on a single fast lap because we focused our work on race pace, so this pole position feels even better! I\u2019m confident for tomorrow, but it\u2019s going to be tough. It will be crucial to manage the rear tyre well: we\u2019ll be starting from pole position, and I\u2019ll do everything I can to claim my first podium tomorrow in Gresini colours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>SERGIO GARCIA #3<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cToday, I was expecting a difficult day. However, the feeling on the bike wasn\u2019t bad and I was confident I could make it into Q2, but unfortunately that wasn\u2019t the case. Tomorrow, we\u2019ll therefore start from twenty-fifth position, so another comeback race awaits us. Now we\u2019ll focus on tomorrow: the goal will be to get a good start, find our race pace and get as close as possible to the points.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Qualifying \u2013 AragonGP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1st &#8211; <strong>Alonso Lopez #21 <\/strong>\u2013 1\u201949.405s (POLE POSITION &#8211; Q2)<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">25th &#8211; <strong>Sergio Garcia #3 <\/strong>\u2013 1\u201950.938s (+0.813s Q1)<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Free Practice 2 &#8211; AragonGP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8th &#8211; <strong>Alonso Lopez #21 <\/strong>&#8211; 1&#8217;50.386s (+0.789s)<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">26th &#8211; <strong>Sergio Garcia #3 <\/strong>&#8211; 1\u201951.392s (+1.795s)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ALONSO LOPEZ #21 \u201cI\u2019m absolutely delighted!
