<a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/other-sports/article/marquez-wins-french-sprint-23539832" rel="nofollow">MotoGP</a> world championship leader Jorge Martin set a new lap record on his way to pole position for Sunday&rsquo;s British Grand Prix.
Spanish rider Martin was not only the fastest in Saturday&rsquo;s midday qualifying session in perfect conditions at the Silverstone track, but also broke the all-time lap record with a time of 1min 56.160sec.&nbsp;
It was the second time in two days that the record fell after Martin&rsquo;s Aprilia teammate Marco Bezzecchi blitzed a 1min 56.280sec lap in practice on Friday despite fracturing his collarbone at the German MotoGP last time out.&nbsp;
Later in the day, Martin also won the sprint race ahead of Trackhouse&rsquo;s Ai Ogura and Bezzecchi.
