Pre-Qualifiche: Bagnaia Dominante, Martin Secondo

The first day of qualifying at the Grand Prix of San Marino and the Rimini Riviera saw Francesco Bagnaia take the top spot in the combined standings. The reigning champion, riding for Ducati Lenovo Team, showed impressive pace, setting the fastest time in both FP3 and FP4, ultimately securing a dominant position for tomorrow's qualifying session.

Martin Challenges Bagnaia, Bezzecchi Completes Top Three

Bagnaia's closest rival in the combined standings was Jorge Martin of Pramac Racing. The Spaniard, known for his aggressive riding style, consistently challenged Bagnaia, finishing just 0.142 seconds behind the Ducati rider. This performance highlights Martin's strong start to the weekend and his potential to challenge for pole position in tomorrow's qualifying.

Rounding out the top three was Marco Bezzecchi, riding for the VR46 Racing Team. The Italian, who has been impressive throughout the season, showed his consistent pace, finishing just behind Martin. Bezzecchi's performance demonstrates the strong competitive field and the potential for a thrilling qualifying session tomorrow.

Other Notable Performances

Luca Marini, Bezzecchi's teammate, secured a top-five position, showing the strong performance of the VR46 Racing Team. Alex Marquez of Gresini Racing MotoGP also impressed with a top-ten position, demonstrating the competitive nature of the mid-field pack.

Fabio Quartararo, the 2021 MotoGP World Champion, struggled throughout the day, failing to secure a top-ten position. The Frenchman will need to improve his pace significantly in tomorrow's qualifying session to avoid starting from the back of the grid.

Qualifying Session Preview

With Bagnaia in dominant form, the focus will be on who can challenge him for pole position. Martin and Bezzecchi appear to be the strongest contenders, but the likes of Marini and Marquez could also play a part in the fight for the front row.

Quartararo and other riders who struggled in the first day of qualifying will need to make significant improvements to secure a good starting position for the race. The qualifying session promises to be exciting, with many riders looking to secure a strong starting position for the Grand Prix.
