Yesterday&#x27;s was nothing compared to what he had today. He made that but three or four times longer, and faster, shaking.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;So, it&#x27;s a shame it&#x27;s not on TV because I think it&#x27;s one of the biggest saves I&#x27;ve ever seen.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Miller qualified fourth, ahead of Quartararo in fifth.
