Hard fought qualifying for the Repsol Honda Team

During Q2 he maintained a good pace, running several fast laps. However, a small crash with three minutes left prevented him from getting the most out of the session and he will start the races from eighth position.

Joan Mir had to go through Q1 after failing to make the cut on Friday. He did not manage to complete a good last lap to move into the fight for pole and will start from 19th position.
