The race on Sunday starting at 8 PM promises to be particularly close, as the conditions in Texas (wind and overheated track) could play a crucial role in the final outcome.
Spanish rider Jorge Martin will be in pole position for the MotoGP Grand Prix of the Americas. Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha) managed to do better than just damage control on the demanding Austin circuit by securing the sixth-fastest time after falling early in the session. Johann Zarco (Pramac Ducati) is also in the mix, with the fourth-best time.
For once, Fabio Quartararo will have to settle for being the “best of the rest.” Behind the exceptional Ducati group, the reigning world champion has managed to secure the second row.
