As usual, Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™ man Fabio Quartararo was first of those taking up the fight to the Bologna bullets with a 1:32.118 leaving him fourth, ahead of Aprilia Racing’s Maverick Viñales on a 1:32.186. Pole-sitter Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team) was 11th on a 1:32.581 as the Australian eased himself into a big day. While mixed conditions spiced up qualifying, it was sunshine which greeted riders for the Warm Up, with the vast majority running the hard Michelin slick on the front and the medium on the rear, although Bastianini was an exception with a soft on the back.
