Vinales takes third straight pole

Maverick Vinales made it three Moto3 pole positions in a row with a late burst of speed in qualifying for the British Grand Prix. The 17-year-old Spaniard used a double slipstream down the Hangar Straight to help him to a table-topping time of 2m16.187s with nine minutes to go, and was set to improve his time on his final lap before his Avintia FTR-Honda was overtaken by Luis Salom in the final complex of corners. Despite that incident meaning no improvement from Vinales, his earlier time was still fast enough to secure pole.
