We can't wait to see the official Ducati duo composed ofAndrea Dovizioso and Danilo Petrucci follow each other for the better but also for the worst, as we saw a week ago. A scenario which opened a conflict between those who until then were accomplices or even accomplices…

It will be noted that once again, these repechages welcome all Ducati who will have to fight against both KTM official whileAleix Espargaro will have arguments to put forward on its Aprilia to play trouble. Whatever happens, only two drivers will join Q2…

21° in the air and 31° on a track bathed in the sun are the conditions offered to the pilots for the 15 minutes of exercise.

The first reference goes to Brad Binder in 1'48.333, five tenths ahead bagnaia. The official decided to hit hard from the start. But we are only at the preliminaries since Miller slams a 1'47.394, four tenths better than Espargaro Pol sued for two thousandths by his brother Aleix on his Aprilia.

Dovizioso is fourth and John Zarco in the top 5. The first salvo ends like this… Everyone returns to their box for new rubber.

The drivers leave for the last five minutes. Miller refuses that Dovizioso take your wheel... Pol Espargaro improves its brand and sticks to two tenths of Miller.

The last minute decides everything: Pol Espargaro takes the lead in 1'47.071. Miller is second and Bradl surprises by pointing third. But under the checkered flag, it's Johann zarco who snatches second qualifying place. Aleix Espargaró is the first eliminated. Miller follows as Brad Binder. Bradl ahead Dovizioso who will start 17th. In front Bagnaia, Petrucci, Rabat et Smith.
