#ARAGP – VIETTI AND LUNETTA QUALIFY FIFTH AND SEVENTH ROW FOR THE ARAGON GP

Saturday’s action at the MotorLand Aragón came to an end with Celestino Vietti qualifying in 15th position and Luca Lunetta in 20th, meaning they will start tomorrow’s race from the fifth and seventh rows respectively.

The day began with FP2, where both Folladore SpeedRS Team riders worked on the different technical solutions available, gathering valuable data ahead of qualifying. Vietti finished the session in P22 with a lap time of 1’51.203, while Lunetta ended FP2 in P28 with a 1’51.816.

In the afternoon, number 32 contested Q1 and managed to improve his benchmark to 1’50.427. However, the time was not enough to secure a place in the decisive Q2 session. Luca will therefore start tomorrow’s race from 20th position on the grid, on the seventh row.

Vietti, meanwhile, had secured direct access to Q2. The rider from made several attempts in search of the perfect lap, but some difficulties during the time attack prevented him from making the most of the bike’s potential and fighting for a position further up the grid. Celestino finished the session in P16, but will start from 15th position, on the fifth row, following Baltus’ penalty.

 

CELESTINO VIETTI #13: P15 – 1’50.522

“It wasn’t the qualifying session we were expecting. I was missing something to be more competitive and fight for a better position. Tomorrow won’t be easy, but we’ll give it our all to bring home the best possible result”.

LUCA LUNETTA #32: P20 – 1’50.427

“Saturday is done! I’m happy with all the steps forward we made today. This morning we tried some important setup solutions with used tyres and found an interesting direction to follow. Qualifying went well, although we were just missing that little bit to make it through to Q2. Every time we go out on track we manage to improve, but today we were missing that one tenth that could have allowed us to fight for better positions. The team is doing a great job and I have a really good feeling with the bike. I feel strong, and that’s definitely a positive. I’m confident for tomorrow because the potential is there. I can’t wait to get out on track tomorrow. Thanks everyone!”.
