Cameron BEAUBIER (KTM), 1:47.728 More, from a press release issued by KTM: KTM’s Marquez leads the third row for Saturday’s Dutch 125 cc TT Red Bull KTM Moto Sport’s Marc Marquez survived the capricious nature of 125 cc GP Qualifying in Assen on Friday to finish in tenth place amid a group of ambitious young riders all out to steal the slipstream advantage in the final minutes. The 16-year-old Spaniard finished in tenth place after hectic jockeying in the final stages of the 40-minute session on the 4.5 km circuit to set himself up well for Saturday’s race. GP races at Assen are traditionally run on Saturdays in contrast to the rest of the season where races are always on Sunday. Marquez has good feeling for tomorrow’s 125 cc GP “I have a very good feeling for the bike but I was not lucky with traffic in the last minutes of the qualifying session. Also my bike is not yet perfect but I am very positive for tomorrow because I know that my team and Harald (Team Technical Director Harald Bartol) will make sure I have a perfect one for the race. Then I will try to make a good start and follow the first group and fight for the best possible result.” Beaubier in twentieth on the grid Cameron Beaubier, the factory team’s 16-year old American finished in twentieth place saying: “This morning everything was going well and I was also riding quite comfortably this afternoon in the qualifying session. Then we put on a new tyre in the last few minutes of the session and the bike was reacting very differently. I couldn’t improve on my time or even go at the same speed as I did before. At the moment I’m not sure about the reason for this but we are checking everything now. Everything should be okay for tomorrow – if I have a good start and if we are lucky with the weather and it stays dry.” The weather forecast for Assen on Saturday is predicting light rain at the circuit but the area is well know for experiencing quick changes.
