Pertamina Enduro VR46 duo of Franco Morbidelli and Fabio di Giannantonio secured fourth and sixth, respectively, as KTM’s Pedro Acosta split the pair in fifth.
Johann Zarco was the highest-placed Honda rider in seventh, while Ai Ogura delivered a strong qualifying run to start eighth for Trackhouse Aprilia.
KTM Tech3’s Enea Bastianini and Honda HRC’s Luca Marini rounded out the top ten qualifiers.
Pecco Bagnaia was surprisingly knocked out in Q1 and will start a challenging 21st on the grid. Other riders like Jack Miller, Joan Mir, Jorge Martin, and Aleix Espargaro also saw mixed fortunes, with fierce competition relegating them to mid-pack or further back on the grid for Sunday’s race.
