Bradl Ninth Fastest at Challenging Laguna Seca GP Qualifying

Stefan Bradl Laguna 2012

Misty conditions known as "marine cloud" welcomed the MotoGP contingent this morning at Laguna Seca race track for the final free practice. Luckily the afternoon qualifying session matched yesterday’s sunny skies and ninth spot on the grid went to LCR Honda racer Stefan Bradl (1’21.753).

Completing the third row ahead tomorrow’s 32-lap race, Bradl fully utilized the afternoon session to fine tune his RCV chasing important front end feeling improvements to better cope with the bumpy Californian track.

"Not great and not so bad... in between! It’s more difficult for me compared with the past races because yesterday I had to find my pace and orient myself on this new track: then this morning we lost the session due to the bad weather so we started working on the bike package this afternoon. I am not really happy about the front end feeling because we are losing too much time in braking and in corners entries so actually  I miss the perfect confidence to go faster. We need to analyze the data and make a change for tomorrow because the surface is pretty bumpy. Starting from the third row is not so bad but I am aware it will be a long race and I will try to follow the guys in the front".
