SEPANG: Brothers Alex and Marc Marquez secured a 1-2 start at Sepang after topping MotoGP qualifying at the Petronas Grand Prix of Malaysia today.
Alex (BK8 Gresini Racing) clocked one minute and 56.493 seconds to secure his first pole position since last year's Catalan GP.
Marc (Ducati Lenovo) was a close second, just 0.070s adrift, while Red Bull KTM's Pedro Acosta (+0.084s) rounded out the front row.
"I really was not expecting this. The first time attack was really good and then I pushed again, and could not believe it when I saw the time," said Alex.
