Diogo Moreira made history for Brazil with his post

The first serious time was already established by Brazilian Diogo Moreira with 2’10″951, three tenths of the best lap given Rossi’s slipstream coming from Q1. He remained on that provisional pole despite Izan’s push to Guevara who, riding alone. and without complexes, remained at 0″068 with five minutes and a few laps to go. Moreira’s MT Helmets-MSI Spain partner Yamanaka was placed third in the absence of the final turn where things did not change regarding the front row.
