The Argentine rider Valentín Perrone (KTM) had a good qualifying session at the Moto 3 Argentine Grand Prix and will start ninth on the grid. His goal is to score points in this race, where he is eager to achieve his first points in the category. The pole position went to the Italian Matteo Bertelle (KTM), with a time of 1:46.034, leaving 232 milliseconds behind the Spanish Ángel Piqueras (KTM). Perrone completed his best lap at the Termas de Río Hondo Circuit in 1:46.896.
In his second participation in the category, Valentín Perrone will seek redemption after a crash-filled debut in Thailand, where he had an incident with another rider during the race. He qualified directly to Q2 after standing out in the Friday practices, finishing in fourth position. After winning Q2, Matteo Bertelle expressed his satisfaction, mentioning that he feels very happy for the recovery after previous setbacks and that he achieved a good time on his fast lap.
The Moto 3 race at the Argentina GP will take place on Sunday at noon. On the other hand, the winner of the Thailand GP, José Antonio Rueda, will start the race from the sixth position. In the free practice 2 on Saturday, Perrone finished in twelfth position and showed a performance that did not leave him satisfied. However, in Q2 he showed strength and will have a good opportunity to fight in his homeland.
After the Argentina GP, the Moto 3 championship will continue in the United States with the Americas Grand Prix in Austin. The top ten positions on the grid for the Moto 3 Argentina GP will be occupied by Matteo Bertelle (KTM), Ángel Piqueras (KTM), Ryusei Yamanaka (KTM), David Almansa (Honda), Álvaro Carpe (KTM), José Antonio Rueda (KTM), Riccardo Rossi (Honda), Joel Kelso (KTM), Valentín Perrone (KTM), and Joel Esteban (KTM).
