Andrea Dovizioso will start from the sixth row of the grid in the Catalan Grand Prix that will be held tomorrow at the Montmelò circuit, on the outskirts of Barcelona
It was a difficult day for Andrea Dovizioso. After finishing the first three free practice sessions in thirteenth overall, he was forced to take part in Q1 where, as he wasn’t able to take full advantage of the soft tyres he ended with the seventh time overall with a lap time in 1:40.109. Andrea will start from the sixth row of the grid in tomorrow’s race at the Catalan race track.

“Unfortunately I am still struggling to understand how to brake properly, and obviously this complicates everything, especially in qualifying. As I am not feeling comfortable when braking, I can’t be as fast as I want and try to make the most of the tyres. It’s a shame because our pace for the race is not bad, but the position from which we will start tomorrow will definitely affect our performance.”
