At the Circuito de Jerez-Ángel Nieto, the CAG SpeedUp team riders returned to the track this Saturday to establish the starting grid for tomorrow’s race. Lopez and Aldeguer will start from the second and fifth row respectively.

In FP3, after a quick tire change, Alonso managed to reduce yesterday’s time by a few tenths of a second. At the end of the last free practice, he takes fifth place in the combined standings with a time of 1’41.170, accessing Q2. Here he put all of himself managing to earn the second starting row for tomorrow’s race with a time of 1’41.459, just +0.709 behind the leader.

FP3 ended for Fermí too with a positive result compared to Friday’s practice. In fact, he immediately showed a good rhythm on his Boscoscuro, improving the previous time by almost seven tenths: twelfth position with a time of 1’41.486 and therefore moved on to Q2.

However, during the hot afternoon, number 54 was unable to make his way among the riders at the top despite the excellent sensations with the bike at every lap. He finishes qualifying in P14 with a time of 1’41.960 and therefore, he will start from the fifth row of the starting grid for tomorrow’s race ready to give his all.
