MotoGP start time: What time does the San Marino Grand Prix start?

The Yamaha rider smashed the MotoGP lap record at Misano to claim his second pole of the season and led a Yamaha 1-2-3-4 ahead of Petronas SRT pair Franco Morbidelli and Fabio Quartararo, with Valentino Rossi heading up the second row on the factory Yamaha.

Jack Miller fronted the charge for the rest of the MotoGP field with fifth place to qualify directly in front of Pramac Ducati team-mate Francesco Bagnaia who returns from injury at Misano.

With Suzuki pair Alex Rins in seventh and Joan Mir in eighth, world title contender Andrea Dovizioso will start the San Marino GP from ninth place as the Ducati rider looks to overturn a three-point deficit on current championship leader Quartararo.

With Johann Zarco 10th for Avintia Ducati, it was a qualifying to forget for Styrian GP polesitter Pol Espargaro as he crashed in Q2 for KTM, which he blamed on having to progress through Q1. The Spaniard will start from 11th ahead of Styrian GP winner Miguel Oliveira (Tech3 KTM).

Cal Crutchlow has withdrawn from the Misano double-header due to a build-up and leaking of fluid from his recently-operated on arm, which is at risk of infection.
