Zarco's back in the garage after the problem on his opening run.
Information
Current order: 1 Rins, 2 Dovizioso, 3 P Espargaro, 4 Rabat, 5 Bagnaia, 6 Iannone, 7 Guintoli, 8 Oliveira, 9 Syahrin, 10 Lorenzo, 11 Abraham, 12 Zarco (no time).
Dovizioso moves up to second, a tenth down on Rins. Bagnaia is up in fifth place.
Rins, Espargaro and Rabat have all pitted after a single flying lap, while the likes of Dovizioso and Bagnaia have gone again.
Lorenzo is 2.7s off with his first try, he's not a threat to make Q2.
Dovizioso's first lap is some 1.542s slower than Rins' but it surely isn't representative of his pace.
Stopwatch
Rins sets an initial 1m59.436s, three tenths up on Pol Espargaro. That's unlikely to be enough.
Crash
Zarco's had some sort of issue and is seen trying to kickstart his bike in the run-off, as precious seconds in Q1 tick away.
All 12 riders are now out on track, with Lorenzo last in the running order.
Green flag
Green flag, Q1 is underway.
Rins and Dovizioso are the two big hitters who desperately need to make it through to Q2 here, but the KTMs of Pol Espargaro and Miguel Oliveira have looked plenty fast enough to pose a threat.
Information
Your Q1 roster: Rins, Oliveira, P Espargaro, Dovizioso, Zarco, Bagnaia, Rabat, Guintoli, Iannone, Syahrin, Lorenzo, Abraham.
Crash
Dovizioso has had some sort of bike drama on his in-lap, which potentially means he's have just the one bike in Q1.
Checkered flag
Chequered flag's out in FP4, Marquez will top it by 0.491s from Quartararo, Vinales, Rossi, Dovizioso and Rins. The latter two will be back in action very soon, as they face needing to get through Q1.
Petronas Yamaha rising star Fabio Quartararo has topped the first three practice sessions of the weekend - picking up the new lap record in the process - but Marc Marquez is currently on course to top the race pace-simulating FP4 session.
