Moto3 | United States GP Qualifying: Martin on pole, Di Giannantonio and Bastianini in 2nd row

Moto3 GP United States Qualifying – Qualifying conditioned by the weather for the Moto3 class in Austin, Texas, where the Grand Prix of the Americas is scheduled for tomorrow, the third stage of the 2018 MotoGP.

The rain, which fell before the session, meant that all the riders entered on rain tyres, but around 15 minutes from the end, Philipp Oettl (KTM Sudmetal Schedl Gp Racing) risked using slicks, immediately leaving huge gaps behind his opponents.

Given his performance, the other teams also opted for dry tires and in the end the pole position after a great fight went to Jorge Martin, who achieved his first pole of the season, the tenth of his career.

The Team Gresini rider stopped the clock at a time of 2:18.629, a time almost half a second better than that set by his compatriot Aron Canet. John McPhee will start with them on the front row.

The second row will be made up of the Japanese Tatsuki Suzuki (SIC58 Squadra Corse) and our Fabio di Giannantonio (Honda Gresini) and Enea Bastianini (Honda Leopard).

An excellent seventh time for Dennis Foggia (KTM Sky Racing Team VR46), who will open the third row where we also find Ayumu Sasaki and Marco Bezzecchi (KTM PruestelGP), the latter winner in Argentina.

Sixth row for Andrea Migno and Lorenzo Dalla Porta, while Niccolò Antonelli (SIC58 Squadra Corse) and the poleman of the Argentine GP Tony Arbolino will start from the seventh.

The difficult moment continues for Nicolò Bulega, who set the twenty-third time on the second KTM of Team Sky VR46.
