MONSTER ENERGY GRAND PRIX DE FRANCE / Qualifying

The qualifying session had just finished.  The mercury rose to 29C and the track temperature was 45C with dry condition.

Toni Elias, who was on the top of the time-sheet earlier today at FP-2 session crashed right after the qualifying started.  It was the last corner of Le Mans and the unfortunate also got another MD600 rider, Lukas Pesek at the same spot as Elias.  But both were able to go back on the track, thanks to prompt works of their team staffs.
