Aragon – Qualifying: Marc Marquez back on top

Free Practice 2: 

• Rain hit the track in the morning, making things difficult for the Moto2 and Moto3 riders on Saturday morning. MotoGP However, the drivers quickly switched to dry tyres to begin the second free practice session.
• The times recorded are much slower than the day before, due to the changes in track conditions. Nothing to worry Marc Marquez who ends a third consecutive session with the lead in the standings.
• The Spaniard clocked a time of 1:49.812, beating Jorge Martin by half a second. Jack Miller completed the top three.

Qualification 1:

• The first part of the qualifying session welcomed big customers, and the track dried out a little more to bring down the times.
• However, it was only for the KTMs, since Brad Binder completed the session in the lead (1:47.958), ahead of the young Pedro Acosta.
• Marco Bezzecchi and Enea Bastianini tried everything, but while the former failed 8 thousandths of a second from Q2, the Ducati factory rider was almost half a second behind the leader. They
• will therefore start from 13th and 14th positions.
• fabio quartararo, still in a complicated weekend, finished Q1 7th (17th on the starting grid).

Qualification 2:

• The man who is certainly Marc Marquez's biggest rival this weekend quickly compromised his Q2. During his first attempt, Jorge Martin fell, ending his race in the gravel trap.
• Up front, the multiple world champion unfolds his scenario. Turning in 1:46.766, he keeps any of his rivals at a good distance.
• Pedro Acosta, Pecco Bagnaia and Jorge Martin will try to get closer to the latter without success.
• The Gresini rider takes his first pole position under the Ducati banner with a notable lead of 8 tenths. Second place goes to Pedro Acosta, while Francesco Bagnaia completes the front row.
• It was a disappointing result for Jorge Martin. The Pramac rider could certainly have hoped for better than the 4th place he took at the end of this qualifying.
• Johann Zarco finished Q2 with an excellent 10th place, after building on this result on Friday.
