This morning session at sweltering Jerez de la Frontera circuit was the third of four practice periods over the race weekend and the final one in which MotoGP riders can classified for qualifying.
LCR Honda racer Stefan Bradl had to cope with some front-end issues which saw the German qualified only 11th in the morning practice. For the first time this season, Bradl had to contest for both qualifying sessions but his remarkable progression and determination secured him the 8th spot on the grid (1’39.847).

“I made this second day in Jerez very exciting for everybody in the Team. Obviously we are far away from the front group and this is not our standard pace. I was expecting to go faster today and to perform only in Q2 but something stopped us. We struggled very much with the front-end which prevented me to push more than this. After yesterdays’ crash, we tried to get some confidence back but it seems that we are not taking the right direction to improve the front feeling”.
