Pramac's Martin smashes lap record to grab pole at Thailand Grand Prix

Title-challenger Jorge Martin of Pramac Racing secured his third pole position of the season at the Thailand Grand Prix by setting a lap record on Saturday, with VR46 Racing's Luca Marini and Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro joining him on the front row.

Championship leader and reigning world champion Francesco Bagnaia, who leads Martin by 27 points in the standings, will only start in sixth on Sunday, behind Italian compatriot Marco Bezzecchi of VR46 Racing and KTM's Brad Binder.

"I did not expect to do 29.2, I think that is a very good lap... I feel more strong for tomorrow and today . I think we can battle for both the races," the Spaniard said.
