Karel Abraham Aragon 2012

Fourteenth place on tomorrow´s Aragon MotoGP grid – that´s the result of Saturday´s qualifying session for Czech MotoGP rider Karel Abraham. After outstanding 7th place in morning session and Friday´s ninth Karel is unsatisfied. With 1:51,521 Abraham lose 2,117 to the fastest Jorge Lorenzo.

“Morning wet session had been really good, but in the afternoon we rode on dry track for the first time and we had some problems with set up. We discussed some changes during my pit stop, but we couldn´t do them immediately. Even I tried to go faster and I was able to improve my lap time, we wasn´t able to move up in classification. Lot of rider, who had been behind me, did their best times in last lap and overtook me.  I can´t be satisfied by this result after successful morning session. We are really curious about weather forecast.“

Marco Grana, Cardion AB Motoracing chief mechanic
„Today morning – on the wet – it was very good, we made good lap time, Karel was happy with bike. Unfortunately we wasn´t so competitive on dry track in the qualifying session. We didn´t have any special problem with bike, Karel was pushing hard, but we couldn´t improve our times. Karel complained on the grip of rear tyre, so we try some changes in set up for tomorrow. But it will be very hard to get to the front from 5th row and especially the first lap will be very difficult. It will be better for us, if it rains tomorrow.
