The Ducati Team rider will start tomorrow’s French Grand Prix at the Bugatti circuit in Le Mans from the second row of the grid.
Andrea Dovizioso, who this morning in FP3 had been unable to improve on his provisional pole time set yesterday, finished the combined standings in fifth place and then remained in that position in the afternoon’s Q2 with a time of 1’31.553.
The French Grand Prix, round 5 of the championship, will start at 14.00 CET tomorrow afternoon and will be run over a distance of 27 laps.
Andrea Dovizioso (Ducati Team #04) – 5th (1’31.553)
“Today went well. The feeling with my Desmosedici GP is very good and seeing as I already had good speed, this afternoon we were able to concentrate on working on the set-up and on tyres, and now we have very clear ideas for tomorrow. I’m pleased with everything, we are in a good situation and we have the pace to fight for the podium, but there are many quick riders and so it will only be in the race that we will see which riders have better pace than the others.”
