Every little step is one. Both Bo Bendsneyder and Jesko Raffin were a second faster on the second day of the San Marino Grand Prix than yesterday. Unfortunately, that did not yield much in terms of positions. Bendsneyder will start the Moto2 race on Sunday from 25th place. Raffin takes off from 28th. The second of improvement was for Jesko Raffin in the third free practice (1.39.216) and for Bo Bendsneyder in the Q1 session (1.37.826). In the qualification Raffin could not match or improve his time. For Bendsneyder it meant twelfth place in the session and thus 26th place in qualifying. Due to a penalty for Sam Lowes, who set the fastest time but has to start from the pit lane, the entire field moved up one place.
Bo Bendsneyder had nothing to say about the second day in Misano.
