Cal Crutchlow has taken his second pole position of the season in today’s qualifying session at Brno. The Yamaha Tech3 rider was able to lower the record breaking lap that suprisingly enough Gresini’s Alvaro Bautista had just conquered, albeit with a tow from Marc Marquez.
Crutchlow who has been having problems with the new gas tank that he received at Indianpolis had a perfect lap as he posted a 1.55.257, more than two tenths of a second faster than Bautista and more than three tenths of a second faster than Marc Marquez who will close the final row.
The British rider believes this pole is more worthy than the one at Assen, when Jorge Lorenzo was recovering from his shoulder operation, and he also zinged Lin Jarvis when he was at the parc ferme, saying that its too bad that Yamaha wasted money coming to Brno to test …
Open the second row will be Dani Pedrosa, and Jorge Lorenzo, who no doubt will upset about the position even though his race pace puts him line for a victory tomorrow. Another suprise of the session was Bradley Smith.
The MotoGP rookie took 6th and he was just +0.487 from his pole sitting team mate and almost more than two tenths faster than factory Yamaha rider Valentino Rossi, who was unable to improve with his second tire.
Joining Rossi on the third row will be Stefan Bradl and Andrea Dovizioso on row three. Nicky Hayden took the 10th spot followed by Andrea Iannone and Colin Edwards in his second Q2 session after Indianapolis.
