Having taken MotoGP pole at the Gran Premio d’Italia TIM on Saturday afternoon, Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) heads the grid again for Sunday’s sixth race of the year, with Andrea Iannone (Pramac Racing) and Jorge Lorenzo (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) also featured on the front row.
A 1:47.270 lap gave Marquez his sixth consecutive pole this year and his seventh successive top grid spot including Valencia last year, as his perfect form continued.

An excellent effort from Iannone (+0.18s) saw him show his pace again to get his first premier class front row start, the perfect response to his two recent DNF results and an ideal performance from an Italian rider on an Italian bike at the Gran Premio d’Italia TIM.
Lorenzo got his third row-one result of the year in third place as he lapped a quarter of a second off Marquez.
Dani Pedrosa (Repsol Honda) still holds the pole record at Mugello with his 1:47.157s time from last year – and he qualified in fourth position with a late lap 0.314s off of Marquez’s time.
A big crash on an out lap ended Monster Yamaha Tech3 rider Pol Espargaro’s session early as he went down at Turn 9 and was clearly annoyed, but the Spaniard was unhurt and still ended up fifth on the grid.
A good qualifying result for Cal Crutchlow (Ducati Team) in sixth saw him outperform teammate Andrea Dovizioso who was eighth.
Sandwiching Dovizioso on the third row are Bradley Smith (Monster Yamaha Tech3) and Stefan Bradl (LCR Honda MotoGP) in seventh and ninth places respectively, with all three qualifying within 0.5s of pole.
Valentino Rossi (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) did not get the Q2 result he wanted as he qualified down in 10th for his 300th Grand Prix race.
Alvaro Bautista (GO&FUN Honda Gresini) and Aleix Espargaro (NGM Forward Racing) made it through from Q1 but were ultimately 11th and 12th, respectively.
