Between Mugello and Sam Lowes, it's a love story that has lasted for three seasons already. The Briton has never qualified during this period worse than second. This year was no exception to the rule since the Gresini driver has just signed his sixth career pole position. And his second consecutive in Italy in two years.

By the way, Alex's brother who works for Yamaha in Superbike is the only one to have gone below the 1'52 per lap mark. Still, his 1'51.965 is slower than his 1'51.514 last year. Nakagami et Baldassari follow on the first line and regain their morale after a lackluster start to the season. The beginning of the second line is also new with Axel Pons et Marcel schrotter who are ahead Johann zarco.

The Frenchman is therefore only sixth but remains ahead of a alex rins ninth who fell just like one of the contenders for the forefront, Simone Courses, who will start eighth behind Lüthi. Jonah Folger is also disappointed. He announced himself as a potential winner when he arrived at Mugello. He will only start seventeenth in front Danny Kent. The first Mistral 610 is twenty-sixth with Isaac Vinales.
