Vinales takes 125cc pole in Germany

Maverick Vinales took his third pole position of the 125cc season in qualifying at the Sachsenring.

The rising Spanish star put in a 1m27.477s to come out on top of a tough battle with Aspar’s Hector Faubel, who then somehow managed to stay upright and on the bike during a wild high-speed ride through the gravel as he tried to respond.

The rapidly-improving Luis Salom maintained his recent strong form to put the RW Aprilia on the final front row spot.

Championship leader Nico Terol (Aspar) was back in fourth, alongside Sergio Gadea, who recovered well from a suspension issue that delayed the start to his session, and Johann Zarco.
