Espargaro against Bagnaia, Aprilia against Ducati. Montmelò is inflamed by the (almost) all-Italian challenge, with Aleix, born and raised a few kilometers from here, who takes that pole position on the Venetian RS-GP that everyone was predicting after tests always up front: the time of 1’38 ”742 is also the new Montmelò record. But next to him, close, very close, is Francesco Bagnaia, whose GP22 from Bologna must surrender to the Spaniard for only 31 thousandths. A great qualifying, which sees Fabio Quartararo settle in third place with Yamaha, albeit 217 thousandths behind Espargaro.
second row ducats
–
The second row is all Ducati, with Johann Zarco 4th in front of a great Fabio Di Giannantonio, another excellent qualifying after the Mugello pole with team Gresini’s Desmosedici, with Jorge Martin 6th. Seventh time for Alex Rins with Suzuki alone in Q2 ahead of Maverick Viñales, brilliantly out of Q1, with Luca Marini 9th. Then Pol Espargaro, Jack Miller and Takaaki Nakagami.
mockery that mockery
–
With Viñales finally able to exploit the great qualities of Aprilia, going to take the first place in Q1 in front of Takaaki Nakagami by only 7 thousandths, Marco Bezzecchi has to prepare for a very difficult race from the rear, mocked for 17 thousandths by the Japanese of Lucio Cecchinello and Enea Bastianini, finished 6 thousandths behind the Rimini rider of the Ducati VR46 team. Bez will start 13th with Enea behind him. Joan Mir was only 7th in Q1 behind the KTMs of Binder and Oliveira who were expected to do great things and ahead of Franco Morbidelli, who after having deceived yesterday, today has returned to struggle in the rear. Morbido will start 18th tomorrow in front of Andrea Dovizioso, with Michele Pirro 22nd, while the presence of Alex Marquez is uncertain at the moment, who crashed badly in FP4 and was transported to the medical center for a wrist check.
