SEPANG, Malaysia: Dani Pedrosa snatched pole position in the dying seconds of a thrilling qualifying session for the Malaysian MotoGP on Saturday as world title hopeful Marc Marquez recovered from a crash to finish seventh. AdvertisementsMarquez looked on course to set the fastest pace of the weekend in a real fast lap when he fell off his Honda. Dovizioso, riding a Du­cati, said he was glad to start the race from the front ahead of Marquez who sits in the third row. “I set a fast lap and it seems the bike is competitive in both wet and dry track,” he said. Meanwhile, Zarco of France on a Yamaha said he used medium tyres during the qualifying to record a strong lap time.
