MotoGP Red Bull Rookie Sturla Takes the First Day

26 June 2008

Sturla Fagerhaug sits on provisional pole after the first of two qualifying sessions for Saturday's Dutch round of the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup. The 16 year old Norwegian was fast and consistent throughout the 30 minutes and was 0.297 seconds quicker than Cup leader Luis Salom at the end. "It went pretty well," said Fagerhaug. "Early on I was in quite a bit of traffic and I did not want to pull the others along so I waited. Towards the end I was on my own and the bike was working well and I was happy to put in some good laps. We'll see if the wind changes much for tomorrow otherwise there is no need to change the bike, it seems pretty good."
