Losail.- In a last lap of vertigo, the Spaniard from the Pramac team was placed at the top of the time table after overtaking Marc Márquez, who will start third and close the first row.
Enea Bastianini will form between the two Spaniards, who confirmed the good moment that the Italian of the Gresini team is going through, for the first time on the front line since he made his debut in the heavy motorcycle category last year.
The two Ducati riders managed their time riding alone; Márquez, who is still not at his best level and who is still adapting to the new Honda, hooked up with Joan Mir on his first attempt, and on the second and definitive one with Pecco Bagnaia.
Jack Miller will start fourth, very significant if we take into account that in front of him he will have two Ducati riders, with theoretically less competitive specifications.
Aleix Espargaró will be placed fifth, just ahead of his brother, Pol, who will close the second row.
Brad Binder, very solid throughout the weekend, was seventh fastest; while Joan Mir finished eighth after the stewards canceled his last lap for exceeding the limits of the track.
Pecco Bagnaia, more out of place than Ducati would like a priori, did not get past ninth place, and Alex Rins fared even worse, who was unable to take advantage of the theoretical superiority that the Suzuki seems to possess at the moment, and which will start on the tenth.
Fabio Quartararo, eleventh, confirmed the worst omens of Yamaha, which was not able to place any of its four bikes in the top ten. The last of the second sieve of qualifying was Franco Morbidelli, 12th, who was less than a second behind the fastest, proof of how tight things are in MotoGP.
Behind, Marco Bezzecchi, 15th, was the best of the rookies. Alex Márquez will start 18th, just ahead of Maverick Viñales (19th) and Raúl Fernández, who will be penultimate.
