168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Johann Zarco pr🦄oduced a 🐠thrilling late lap under the Friday floodlights in Qatar to snatch Honda's only guaranteed spot in Saturday's Qualifying 2 pole position shootout.

The Frenchman looked set to jo൩in HRC riders Luca Marini and Joan Mir in the uncertainty of Q1 until he edged out Yamaha's Alex Rins by just 0.030s in a🐬 dramatic last-minute charge.

"I'm re𝔉ally happy. That last lap was amazing and thrilling," Zarco 💫said.

After an earlier techn🌊ical issue limited his FP1 running, 🌺Zarco bounced back impressively in the cooler evening conditions at Lusail, maximising grip from the softer tyre.

“I could feel that the soft rear tyre had something extra to give over one lap," h🍸e explained. "I made a mistake on my first attempt but nailed it on the second.🌳"

"We've improved the꧅ bike's control, and this track gives us a loܫt of grip," he added. 

"It feels like we have �𝔍�more potential than we did last year. We've made a big step forward today."

Meanwhile, fellow Honda riders Marini (12th) and Mꩲir (13th) now face the challenge of fighting for the final pꦬair of Q2 places in Qualifying 1.

Zarco's late burst also left Aprilia as the only manufacturer without at least one rider in the top ten, with Trackhouse rookie Ai Ogura the leading RS-GP in 15th.
