Alvaro Takes Mugello Pole

Alvaro took pole for tomorrow’s Mugello GP in a close-fought qualifying session, where he was happier with his bike’s front end setup than during the morning’s free practice session.
He shares the fron row with Aoyama, and Dumb & Dumber again – so it’ll be interesting to see what happens at the start. Hopefully Bati can get clean away, although his starts have not necessarily been the strongest so far this season.
Nonetheless, we know how he can come good during a race anyway, so let’s wait and see…

Suerte Alvaro 🙂
