The Italian Pecco Bagnaia He seems to be leaving the purgatory of starting the campaign with the Ducati GP22 and making a leap in quality in one lap by stealing the pole position in Jerez by surprise from the one who had all the numbers to apply it. , the World The championship leader and defender of the crown, Fabio Quartararo, who surpassed 0 “453 after setting a new record with 1’36” 170 that broke the 1’36 “584 that Viñales has had since 2020 with Yamaha as the record for Aleix Espargaró’s Complete Row, which this Saturday went all out in one lap, though he finished 0 ”763 off the lead. And the three in the front row are the three with the best race speed, so getting ahead of their rivals will be key this Sunday from 2 p.m. Aleix could leave Aprilia without a concession, the last factory to patronize them, if he adds a new podium.
I had an intuition Marc Marquez that Bagnaia and Quartararo would fight for pole position, very quickly and without any complexity since he was no longer competing in the dry lap, he chased them to ensure the second row on the grid, which for him was complete. success and sporting accepted by his rivals, they have no other choice because they play for the pole. Bagnaia led both FP3 and FP4 on Saturday and Quartararo has been the poleman in Jerez uninterruptedly in the last four events since 2019. Marc has already taken advantage of Miller’s wheel in FP3 to get directly into this fight for the poste.
To avoid the problems that drive him crazy with Aleix Espargaró He was the last out of the box and thus prevented anyone from catching his wheel at the start and Marc Márquez saw Pecco Bagnaia. The first to be eliminated was Jorge Martín on turn 1 due to a crash and he ran down the road to look for a quick return to him on the pitlane. From Q1, Marco Bezzecchi put 1’38 “054 ahead of Enea Bastiani (1’37” 691) and Joan Mir (1’37 “616) while defeating Bagnaia, Marc Márquez, Quartararo, Zarco and Aleix Espargaró on his first lap for not cutting the yellow flag as a result of the Madrilenian’s fall.
Joan Mir doubled her bet with an insufficient 1’37 ”369 until Fabio Quartararo had already imposed a 1’36” 790 on his second lap launch, 73 thousandths better than Bagnaia, with Aleix Espargaró who third to four tenths.
Ducati is fooling Marquez
But this time Bagnaia and Miller caught Marc Márquez waiting for the Ducatista at the Repsol Honda box door for the final ‘run’ and he had to turn the heaters back on and then replace the tire to follow, Fabio said. . Quartararo.
And while the Frenchman doubted whether or not to shoot Cervera at the wheel, Bagnaia took a provisional pole with 1’36 ”170, a new record, when Joan Mir fell on turn 1 and on turn 9 Bastianini and again the yellow flags that there appeared saw that by the time ‘the Devil’ was melting that a new pole position in Jerez would be impossible.
Quartararo tried to reduce the difference to Ducatista, but he only reduced it to 0 “453, and moved Marc Márquez up to fifth position (1’37” 145), but he sealed second place. Aleix Espargaró spontaneously pulled his teammate Maverick Viñales to take third place but 0 “763 behind the Italian, though his strength depends on his great speed and his confidence gained in 2022.
Of the three in the front row, the most in need of risk is Pecco Bagnaia, tenth in the standings, 38 points behind the Quartararo and Rins tandem and with two top-5 finishes in Termas and Austin, where he started third on the grid, as the best results.
From the second row Jack Miller will start with Marc Márquez and Johann Zarco, from the third Nakagami with Bezzecchi and Joan Mir who started Friday in the lead in FP1 and finished Saturday in the usual starting position in the race and with an amazing saving to FP4 proving the fact he gives it his all to Jerez and from fourth Jorge Martín along with Bastianini and Viñales that after one lap he couldn’t improve.
By Q1, Ducati of Zarco and Bezzecchi entered pole position and left Pol Espargaró three thousand, 13th on the grid, and Alex Rins, 14th, nearly four tenth. Alex Marquez will start on the 22nd. Rins, who equals points with leader Quartararo and has the opportunity to leave Jerez as leader, like Aleix Espargaró and Fabio himself, will have to appeal for a new comeback.
