David Almansa secures pole position for Moto3 San Marino Grand Prix

David Almansa secured pole position for the Moto3 race at the San Marino Grand Prix held at the Misano circuit. Despite failing to finish his final flying lap, Almansa posted the fastest time in Saturday's qualifying session. Brian Uriarte followed in second place, with Joel Kelso taking the third spot on the front row. The session featured tactical maneuvers as riders attempted to utilize the slipstream, though Almansa proved the strategy was not strictly necessary for his fast lap. Championship leader Maximo Quiles qualified in fifth position. Alvaro Carpe, currently second in the championship standings, advanced through Q1 to claim the ninth starting position for the race.
