Aragon MotoGP qualifying

Live Text

Sort by
Q1 is now underway, with Rins first to head out of the pits. He shouldn't really be here given his overall pace and likely podium chances, but one-lap pace has been his Achilles' heel all season.
Q1 line-up: Rins, Petrucci, Nakagami, Morbidelli, Iannone, Rabat, Kallio, Oliveira, Syahrin, Lorenzo, Bagnaia, Abraham, Smith.
FP4 results: 1 Marquez, 2 Vinales, 3 Quartararo, 4 Rins, 5 Miller.

Rossi P7, Dovizioso P8, Lorenzo P22.
Marquez indeed tops FP4, by four tenths over Maverick Vinales - although the gap was actually around seven tenths for most of the session before Vinales ran a fresher rear tyre late on.
Pol Espargaro has had a crash during this pre-qualifying FP4 session, the Spaniard highsiding violently off his KTM through the second part of the downhill 'reverse corkscrew'. He was awake and alert after the accident, but had to be stretchered away.
Championship leader Marc Marquez has been running riot all throughout this weekend, going comfortably fastest on Friday and currently outpacing the field in FP4 - the first dry MotoGP session of the day, after FP3 was run almost entirely on wet tyres.
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the MotoGP qualifying at what is currently a surprisingly sunny Motorland Aragon.
