First and second row for the Ongetta Rivacold Racing team at Silverstone Circuit. In difficult climate conditions, due to the rain which started to fall on the track before the beginning of the qualifying, Niccolò Antonelli and Jules Danilo got respectively the fourth and seventh time, obtained before the track conditions got worse and there was no more opportunities to improve the time. Both riders gained then a position on the grid following the disqualification of another rider.

Niccolò Antonelli: « I would have preferred a dry qualifying especially because it was important to understand few things for tomorrow. The warm up at this point will be fundamental to fix the configuration for the race. Today we were fast , but at the end of the session it was raining too much and probably I passed on a part of the track with too much water and I lost the rear. Luckily a crash without physical consequences for me. Now we stay concentrated for tomorrow« .

Jules Danilo: « It was a good qualifying and we worked well. I always had a good pace in all the sessions, by turning alone and in the group, and I am happy as even on the wet my feeling with the bike was good. I took some risks at the beginning of the qualifying but I got a good time before weather conditions got worse. We start from a good position on the grid and tomorrow, on a dry track, it will be interesting to see what we can get ».
