Martin denies Fernandez in duel for lap record pole at Silverstone

Jorge Martin (Aprilia Racing) has come out swinging after the summer break to take the first pole position of the second half, setting a new lap record of 1’56.160 to pip Raul Fernandez to the top by just 0.021. SuperFile Trackhouse MotoGP Team made it both riders on the front row as Ai Ogura slots into third alongside his teammate.

The top six in the Championship are the top six on the grid – not in the same order, barring P1 – with Fabio Di Giannantonio (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) fourth, Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia Racing) fifth and Marc Marquez (Ducati Lenovo Team) P6. And that is quite a grid to take on one of the behemoths of the MotoGP calendar.
