It is important to stay hydrated throughout the day.
Pole position and two record laps for Jorge Martín in Misano. The Prima Pramac Racing Spanish rider left no chance for the competition and secured the pole position for the San Marino GP. Marco Bezzecchi and Francesco Bagnaia are also on the front row of the grid.
In Q2 the tire choice was unanimous for everyone, with the hard in the front and the soft in the rear, but it was Brad Binder and Jorge Martín who performed the best in the first flying lap. Dani Pedrosa, wildcard, was third and Maverick Viñales fourth.
Two laps later the highlight was Martín, who set a lap record at Misano with 1:30.832s, leaving Marco Bezzecchi 0.195s behind. Francesco Bagnaia was third 0.347s off, ahead of Binder and Aleix Espargaró.
With the session roughly halfway through, the riders headed back to the team garage.
Upon their return and after a slower first lap for preparation for the final attacks, new changes in terms of best times were expected.
Indeed, Dani Pedrosa moved up to second place in the session but once again Martín stood out by improving his best lap time (and record), now with 1:30.390s. Pedrosa was 0.603 behind!
In the following minute, Bagnaia surpassed Pedrosa and set the second best time but was later overtaken by Bezzecchi, who placed 0.406s behind the Pramac/Ducati Spaniard.
The session would end shortly after with Martín securing the pole position in great style!
