Provisional Front Row for Robbie after Drenched Qualifying 1
Robbie has provisionally qualified in 4th Positions for the Saturday race at Croft this weekend. The heavens opened minutes before qualifying and the team members were frantically trying to get the wets on the machine.

Robbie suffered heavily with traffic in the session, however he managed to put in a time 4th fastest before pulling into the pits, with 11 seconds to go.

“To be honest, I am happy with 4th, because I know I have the pace in the wet or dry. We had a reasonable session this morning in the dry, but I struggled with suspension settings which were later sorted ahead of QP1, but typically, the heavens opened and wets it was! The session went fairly well, but I struggled massively with traffic, and when you are following someone its very hard to see because of all the spray.
I pulled into the pits thinking I would be able to wait for clear track, but when I pulled in it said 11 seconds to go, which is a shame, but my mistake!
Looking onto tomorrow, hopefully it will be dry in the morning and I should be able to improve on my position, I feel very confident for tomorrows race and hopefully we won’t have any issues!”
Explained Robbie

So now it’s a waiting game overnight ahead of QP2, where Robbie hopes to improve his position ahead of the Saturday race whether it is wet or dry.
