Kerr: More to Come from GB
Robbie Kerr doesn't believe his fifth place in this afternoon's qualifying session at Brands Hatch demonstrated the true performance of Team Great Britain
Kerr claims he was baulked on his better runs in the session and will be able to reach the podium in tomorrow's sprint and feature races.
Kerr was fastest overall in the second segment and reckons that he was baulked on his last sector, where the majority of the field went quicker.
"The fifth doesn't show our true potential, but I'm fairly happy with it," Kerr told Autosport-Atlas. "Obviously I'd like to be higher or on pole, especially at Brands, but we've learnt a lot over the last few days and we are in a position where we can do something.
"On the first lap I caught traffic. On the second lap I got a clear one. On the third I made a mistake and on the fourth I caught more traffic. We can still go forward and aim for the top and see where we come out. I think we can get on the podium.
"I was baulked in the last session and we've still got more pace the bag, we just need to get that extra bit in the race tomorrow."
