Andrea Dovizioso also had a good qualifying run, and he was very satisfied with his race pace at the end of the day. The Romagna-born rider, sixth after the morning’s FP3 session, set the sixth quickest time of 1’32.677 in qualifying and will start from the second row of the grid for tomorrow’s 28-lap race.

“I am pleased with this afternoon’s result, because in the morning, with the cooler temperature, I had lost a bit of feeling. My race pace is really very good even though a lot of us are at a similar level. Tomorrow I expect it to be a tight race and it will be vital to get a good start. I’m sorry about what happened to Andrea Iannone because I know how important it is to race at Misano for an Italian rider, but I am also happy about Michele Pirro’s good performance, he went really well today.”
