Home rider Fabio Quartararo sensationally claimed pole positiꦅon on Saturday. He will begin first on Sunday at Le Mans, representing a major step forward f﷽or Yamaha.
But keeping Marc Marquez, who begins fr🃏om second,𒆙 will be a tough challenge. Marquez overtook Quartararo to win Saturday's sprint.
Gresini teammates Alex Marq𒈔uez and Fermin Aldeguer are third and fourth. Aldeguer is already having perhaps his best premier class weekend so far.
Pecco Bag🐷naia is, disappointingly for him,🧸 only sixth. His desperation for points in the title battle will not be helped by this.
The t🦩op KTM is Maverick Vinales, in fifth. Marco Bezzecchi is the furthest Aprilia forwards, in seventh. Johann Zarco, 11th, is the besꦕt placed Honda.
