Capirossi to start from P8

22 September 2007 / Results / Photos

Ducati Marlboro rider Loris Capirossi will start tomorrow's Japanese Grand Prix from the third row of the grid after running ninth fastest during this afternoon's qualifying session.

Capirossi, winner here in 2005 and 2006, has moved forward during the weekend and is confident of a decent race tomorrow. "I have to give credit to my team - they have been very reactive this weekend and even if we are struggling again, as usual with the power delivery which doesn't seem to suit my riding style, we've made a few small steps forward," Capirossi said. "We've tried a lot of small changes and finally we found a race pace with which I am satisfied. Of course, my rhythm isn't the fastest but it's not so bad, around the low 48s. I think it is the rhythm for a reasonable race tomorrow."
