🗣️'Qualifying’s gone – even from when I did it last year – very much like in Formula 1. You put an average first run in, but know where you can improve it seems.' Cal Crutchlow says he is 'disappointed' with qualifying 19th on his MotoGP comeback ⬇️
will contest the final six races of the 2022 seasonCrutchlow suffered a 300km/h crash in FP3 on Saturday morning, which stopped him from being able to challenge for a place in Q2. He believes this was possible, despite not having raced since last year’s Aragon round when he was a factory Yamaha sub.
The three-time MotoGP race winner noted that, since he retired from full-time competition at the end of 2020, the way qualifying sessions have to be managed have become more like what is seen in F1. “But I am being competitive within myself. I thought I should have been faster, I would have been faster by quite a significant amount but I had yellow flags.“I went into qualifying, I was optimistic. I didn’t do a bad lap on the first run, and qualifying’s gone – even from when I did it last year – very much like in Formula 1.Cal Crutchlow, RNF MotoGP Racing“We used to just go flat out, as hard as you can.
“Went really slow because there were some riders, I stayed out, I wanted to be on my own. I went to go and the right hand side of the front tyre was cold.
