Bendsneyder 12th in qualifying

Bo Bendsneyder qualified for Q2 after taking part in the first session. Bendsneyder, who was in the top ten in the first few minutes, fought to get a good lap until the end despite the yellow flags and the tricky conditions. The Pertamina Mandalika SAG Team rider will start the race from twelfth position.

P12 – 1.37,767

“It has been a tricky day again. This morning was wet, really cold and foggy. We knew we had to go Q1 because we knew we couldn’t be faster than yesterday so it was a bit disappointing. We can’t change the weather so we have to accept it. During the last minutes of FP3 there was a bit of a dry line but still with wet tyres and I was struggling a lot. It was really difficult to find the confidence with the bike but we knew maybe in the afternoon it could be dry. In America we made a big change on the bike during the warm up, we have used the same bike here in Misano and It worked. I could make a good lap time although I made some mistakes. It was difficult to make a good lap because there were too many yellow flags. We need to keep improving and let’s see what we can do tomorrow”.
