"It was still a hotly contested qualifying!", Summarizes the team manager of the Yamaha Austria Racing Team (YART): "even if we miss pole position by just 0.028 seconds, one of the smallest gaps ever, we are very satisfied with this performance. This second position at the start gives us 4 more points, so we go second in the championship ".

And above all, "we made the qualifying race tires because Bridgestone does not offer qualifying tires", continues Mandy Kainz. "So we know we have a good pace for the race and I think we have one of the best packages on the grid, not to say the best, so we’ll see what happens in the race".
