🎤 Fabio, you're clearly on fire this weekend. Fastest yesterday, then on the front row after a historic qualifying session. The two drivers next to you set an incredible pace. From your perspective, how did qualifying go?

Fabio DiGiannantonio : "Yes, they can all go to hell, because they've already beaten my time from yesterday (laughs). 
I really wanted to keep the lap record!
In any case, we had a very good qualifying session. The goal was to be on the front row. We finished third, so we achieved our objective.
Yes, I have a good feeling with the bike. I think Aprilia has something extra than us, to be honest, in terms of pace.
We're starting from here, so we have to fight. We have to take our chances.
