DONI TATA PRADITA IMPROVES
Doni was quicker on Saturday than he was on Friday. He is improving regularly on a track where he is racing for the first time.
Doni will start on the 6th row of the grid, with the 22nd time during the qualifying session. He worked today on the setting of the bike with the crew. He will try to score some points tomorrow on a track that he knows better now.
The quickest time went to the World Championship leader Cal Crutchlow on a Yamaha, in front of Joan Lascorz. Kenan Sofuoglu will start from the 3rd position on the grid, with Eugene Laverty joining them on the first row with the 4th time.
Doni Tata Pradita: "I improved from yesterday. I am a little bit happy. I keep the good spirit and my motivation for the race tomorrow. We improved the setting, but not enough. Thank you to my mechanics for working so hard. Please support me for a good race and prey for me."
Martial Garcia (team-manager): "The qualifying session was difficult. Doni was 0.6 second faster than yesterday, but he is still 22nd. I am confident for the race because the motorcycle is good. We have a good setting for the race. We must be patient because the rider needs to understand this special track."
