Continuation of Asia´s annoyance?

Today´s qualifying practice at tropical Sepang cirucuit decided for Jakub´ 19th starting position on the grid for Malaysian GP.

 

Kubajz is a bit upset about his position on the grid. Sad face has not left Jakub since Japan, where it was basicaly the worst weekend this year ended with pitlane starting and his first DNF in the season after a technical issue. Mechanics supposed there is some problem with gearbox, however right issue was broken part on water-pump. Jakub left to Malaysia with better hopes for Malaysian weekend.

Jakub Kornfeil: Weekend started well with 15th place in Friday´s free practice that gave me a chance to think I can not be worse than 16th in qualify. Today´s morning temperature was so much more acceptable than yesterday´s so we were hoping for better grip. Morning session meant 2.17.1 as my fastest lap and I was so desperate to improve it in QP. Qualifying started really well I was involved in group with fast riders and because of this I could reached some good laptimes. I was about 15th place what I was very happy about.  I entered the pits for a new rear tyre, but timing was not so good and I had not so much time remaining to fing any solution how to improve my time for example get slipstream of some faster riders so I had to ride on my own and ,,struggle“ with long straights without any slipstream advantage that could secure improving of my best that I miss for 4th row start.
