#GermanGP: "TODAY, I BLOCKED MYSELF"

DOMINIQUE AEGERTER: "TODAY, I BLOCKED MYSELF"

Dominique Aegerter and his team Kiefer Racing suffered a setback during a timed session for starting positions once again, as the weather situation changed suddenly on Saturday afternoon. The Swiss rider did not qualify better than for 17th spot on the grid.

During all dry practices, Dominique Aegerter performed strong and constant this weekend. But during the first session on a completely wet track, the all-important qualifying, the 26-year-old Swiss rider failed to find his rhythm.

This Sunday, the timetable will return to normal. Therefore, starting time for the final race before the summer break is scheduled for 12:20 pm.

#77 Dominique AEGERTER (Kiefer Racing, Suter MMX2), Grid position 17 – 1´33.908 (22/22):

"17th position on the grid doesn’t taste, of course. I’m disappointed. But this qualifying was my fault. This new tarmac offers a lot of grip. Nevertheless, it was difficult to understand where there was good grip and where not. But, I was by far not able to go to the absolute limit. In addition, the session started under mixed conditions with a half-wet and semi-dry track as well as I did not have a good feeling at the same time, so I was not able to put in a strong lap time straight away. But then, in the rain, it was the same even though I went faster with each lap. Perhaps it was also because I did not have the best confidence with the front in the dry as the grip level is that much high at this track now. I might have taken this disadvantage into qualifying so I did not have a clean drive through some corners. In any case, I blocked myself today."
