Tito Rabat hopes for another step up in Argentina race

Former Moto2 World Champion Rabat continued with his steady transition to MotoGP to beat his target time in qualifying. The Spanish rider qualified 4.8s faster than his best time in Friday’s opening free practice session.

The forecast rain stayed away and the slightly cooler track conditions plus improved grip levels saw times tumble dramatically from the Friday free practice sessions. Tito Rabat qualified in 19th position.

Tito Rabat: 19th – 1’41.157
“I beat my target time in qualifying and I’m happy about that, it has been a very productive practice and qualifying because I improved my times in every session. Our focus was to work on race set-up in FP4 so I wasn’t completely focussed on qualifying even though I improved my time. The Honda is working well here so I need to change my style more to take maximum profit from the bike. I hope to make another step in the race.”
