He dominated impeccably all qualifying sessions, has shown great determination and at the end the Liberty Racing Team rider Jakub Smrž gave to his team the satisfaction of winning the pole position for the second time in his career after that one in Misano in 2009.
This result underlines once again the indomitable character of Kuba, who just in the final lap stopped the chrono on 1’47” 626, and this is a very important time, especially considering that it was achieved with race tyres.
Great honor to the work of all the staff that once again has demonstrated its value. Smrž just during the free practice before Superpole, crashed down damaging his Ducati, and thanks to the tenacious work of the team, the rider was able to get on track and blast the fantastic result that seals the commitment of the Liberty Racing.
Sixth, Sylvain Guintoli that with time of 1’48 “568 placed his bike on the second row and he will hunt for the podium with his usual determination that characterized him.
Maxime Berger, centered the target to be in the group of sixteen elected for Superpole, scored the fourteenth time, and will start from the fourth row with a time of 1’49” 750.
Great satisfaction and pride for all the Liberty Racing Team in the land of America and from the Miller Motorsports Park issues the challenge to opponents from the first place overall!
Natale Egi, Supervisor Liberty Racing Team
“Kuba was very good and I’m very proud of him as all our team that has made this well-deserved result. The pole is the prize to his determination and teamwork, and once again we are in front ready to fight!”.
Jakub Smrž
“I’ m really happy with winning superpole here after good performance in all practices. There isn’t much to say, because race is tomorrow. Just that we are ready, bike is perfect and thanks to team for great job. It’s incredible I could dominate in most of practices and win superpole with race tyres. But as I said, the important are races and we are 100% ready to fight for win after all the bad luck in races this year”.
