Wasting no time, Maꦐrtin set a brutal🌳 pace as he churned out a time of 1:29.621 on just his first flying lap. 

Martin’s effort was over two tenths clear of Miller, while title contender 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo was over half a second bac༒k on the Pramac rider. 

Further back was series leader 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia, with the Itജalian way off the pace following the fꩲirst time attack runs.

Bagnaia was over 1.1 seconds down on Martin’s time, while 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales, who didn🌄’t set a 🍨lap early on, then went P4 with five minutes to go. 

A late fall for Miller put his provisional front row at risk, which was then put under even more danger by Marquez as the Repsol Honda rider moved ahead of him int𝓀o second. 

But luckily for Miller, Quartararo lost too much time💙 in the final sector to overhaul the🐲 Australian. 

Bagnaia’s difficult weeke♉nd continued as he failed to find significant gains. The Ducat꧂i rider could only manage eighth.

Th𓆉ere was a late scare for Quartararo as the Yamaha rider ℱran off track at turn two, however, he managed to remain aboard his M1.

Making his return to track action after missing FP4 due to a big turn ten crash in FP3, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Raul Fernandez was given the all-clear afte🐓r undergoing medical 💮checks.

As 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins went fastest while usingꦬ a soft front tyre - a surprising choice given hard or medium fronts were seemingly the preferred options throughout the weekend - another Alex in the form of Marquez encountered trouble in sector one.

Marquez pulled off track after an issue with his RC213V occurred just after the ൩exit of turn one. 

There were more issues for Honda at the start of the second and final time attack runs, as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pol Espargaro’s qual෴ifying came to an earl꧂y end after he crashed at turn two. 

Vinales then went back to the top of the leaderbo♏ard before Bastianini jumped into second. However, the Gresini rider’s qualifying also came to an abrupt end as he fell at turn two.

With the Italian in the gr🐼avel, his hopes of moving through to Q2 were dashed when Rins moved back in front of him with P2.
