Rider Jorge Martín has taken pole position in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup promotional cup at the Silverstone Circuit, so the current championship leader continues to show his potential and will give his all in the race that takes place today and tomorrow’s race on the British track.

Martín set a time of 2’18.935 and set it at the end of the practice session, ahead of number 88, as he completed 11 laps and it was on the tenth that he achieved this incredible time, which earned him pole position for the promotional cup at this British round. In addition, Jorge was the only rider on the grid to run a 2.18.

Behind Martín was Manuel Pagliani, the Italian finishing 0.358s behind the leader. Meanwhile, the top 10 was completed by Razgatlioglu in 3rd, Gutiérrez 4th, Simpson 5th, Bendsneyder 6th, Mir 7th, Ray 8th, Di Giannantonio 9th and Manzi 10th.

The rest of our riders finished 14th Marc García and Jaume Masia is listed in the times as unclassified, “we assume” due to a crash or mechanical problems, as he could not set a fastest lap; we will see what happens with the talented young rider.

We remind you that the first race will take place today at 17:30, while the second race will be held on Sunday after the Moto2, MotoGP and Moto3 races. Maximum action for the Rookies promotional cup.
