Foggia, who has just won in Alcañiz, is willing to be a prophet in his land and, to begin with, he led in the morning and in the afternoon at the start of the San Marino GP, with Acosta second 0.337 behind the Italian.
It is a good start for the leader of the general classification, because his most immediate pursuer in the table at 46 points away, Garcia, He started 18º to 1.2 from the head, with what he already knows from day one that he is obliged to make the comeback both on Friday and, above all, on Sunday. In his favor, he plays that it is in the small class where the position on the grid matters least and where the most comebacks are seen, but it would have been much better for him to start later, among other things to completely forget about last Sunday’s crash. It happened five corners from the end, when he was third and with Acosta out of the race, which hurt even more the loss of the podium because it also meant the loss of the possibility of opening the championship much more. Now he starts with 17 drivers between him and his big goal, but he has time to turn things around.
Returning to the front positions of a time table that has been set up with dry asphalt, after Foggi and Acosta Fenati, Antonelli, Migno, Bertelle, McPhee, Öncü, Binder (suffered a crash), Salac, Masiá, Suzuki, Guevara and Artigas have qualified to complete the list of the first 14 with provisional direct access to Q2.
