Pramac Racing
The Pramac Racing Team and his rider, Héctor Barberà, achieved the 7th spot on the grid in today’s qualifying session at the Malaysian Grand Prix scheduled for tomorrow at 10:00 GMT.
Setting a best lap time of 2’01.294, the Spaniard will start from a promising third row, putting in for a strong performance for tomorrow’s 20 laps race.
Héctor struggled a little with some chattering problems, but these small issue seems to be no cause for concern for the Pramac Racing Team, that tomorrow will use also the twenty-minute warm up to adjust the bike set up, trying to help Héctor to fight for a brilliant result.
Héctor Barberà – Pramac Racing Team Rider – 7th place in 2’01.294
“I’m very happy about today. The Sepang circuit is one of my favorite tracks and I always went quite fast here. I achieved a good result in today’s qualifying session, finding a good pace. The 7th place of today, allows me to arrive on the grid tomorrow, with confidence to battle for a great race and it was what I needed. I’m feeling good on my Ducati and I know we can hunt for one of our best results, in this 2012 MotoGP season. Today I rode with the same lap times I set during the winter test (even if during the preseason test we found different weather conditions compared this weekend) and this improved a lot my confidence for tomorrow’s race.”
