P1 – Can Oncu (Yamaha BLU CRU Evan Bros Team)
“I’m very happy because this is my first time on pole position. This is a very special moment for me because everyone was thinking that I would not come back again after my injuries. Kenan always said, ‘You will see, I will bring him back’ and we worked very hard to come back. Today’s result comes from working hard with Kenan, Toprak, and all the Turkish riders. I’m very happy to show that I’m back at the front and that I have had a fast pace all day. The bike is amazing and my team is the best because we have worked very hard to reach the top. Today is a great result but this is just the first step. The second step is tomorrow, and then Sunday is the third step. I want to win.”
