  "summary": "Jorge Martin claimed pole position for the British Grand Prix, beating Raul Fernandez by 0.021s with a last-lap effort. Fernandez had appeared set to top qualifying for the first time in his MotoGP career, having lowered Marco Bezzecchi's circuit record at Silverstone on his final run.\n\nMartin's pole position was part of an Aprilia front-row lockout, with Fernandez starting alongside him. According to Motorsport.com, Martin had little more left in the tank to secure the top spot.\n\nMarco Bezzecchi had smashed the circuit record at Silverstone by almost a second on Friday, making a brilliant comeback from a collarbone fracture.",
