First career pole position for Yari Montella

Superpole Highlights

Yari Montella (Barni Spark Racing Team) claimed the first Superpole of his WorldSSP career (1’36.876). Montella, race winner at the opening round of the year in Australia, is second in the World Championship
 
It was an action-packed session for Championship leader Adrian Huertas (Aruba.it Racing WorldSSP Team). The Spaniard suffered an early crash in the Superpole session but when he returned to the track, he looked like the rider to beat. Unfortunately, a track limits penalty cost him his fastest time and he had to settle for second on the grid
 
The top three in the championship standings will line-up together on the front row of the grid
 
Dutch Round race winner Glenn van Straalen (Pata Yamaha Ten Kate Racing) crashed during Superpole and qualified in 14th position
 
Simone Corsi (Renzi Corse) was the leading Supersport Challenge rider with the Italian qualifying in 11th position

“This is my first pole position. To do this at home means it was a perfect day for us. I want to thank my team because we have worked throughout the tests and today for this result. We need to be strong and to stay focused on the race.”
