Saturday was great for the Monster Energy duo as both Valentino Rossi and Maverick Viñales have gotten their magnificent start for the main race today.

Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP duo Maverick Viñales and Valentino Rossi have presented great results at the second day at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya They have clinched a third and fifth place on the grid respectively in today’s Q2 for the Gran Premi Monster Energy de Catalunya.

“This is very good news for us because it looks like Yamaha is fast and competitive here. Today I continued where I left off yesterday, with a good pace. I feel good with the bike. In the afternoon, with the higher temperatures, it’s maybe a bit more difficult, but anyway I will start from the second row, which is good. Now I think the tyre choice, front and rear, will be very important, because everybody tried a lot of different combinations, so we need to think well and understand what the best option is for us,” says Rossi as quoted from Yamaha Racing.

“We improved the feeling quite a lot, so I’m happy about that. As I said, we were working in a different direction. Let’s see tomorrow if all the hard work pays off. I’m ready to start and get in front. We’ve worked in a good way, but it has been difficult to set one good lap because the bike is quite a bit different from what I was riding in Mugello. Let’s see if tomorrow we can improve, but anyway it’s very important to be consistent, to be in front, and battle with the front guys. I will try my best. “I misunderstood the chequered flag. So I didn’t do it purposely or with malicious intent, so for me, the penalty is too severe, but I have to accept it because this is the way it is. For sure I’m not happy, but there’s no excuse. We start from sixth, which isn’t bad at all, it could have been worse. I’m not so far from the first row, just a few metres behind it. If I have a good launch at the start, I think we can be good.
