Austin - Reigning world champion Marc Marquez captured pole position for the MotoGP Grand Prix of the Americas for the third straight year in dramatic style on Saturday.
The Spaniard, gunning for a third straight win in the Texas state capital, was stranded on the track when a warning light on his Honda came on with three minutes left in qualifying.
He had to sprint for his second bike, even as his rivals were producing their fastest laps.
