Spanish dominance highlighted an intense qualifying session at Motegi as Jorge Martin secured a brilliant pole position. The Madrid-born rider clocked an impressive 1:42.371, shattering the circuit record while fending off fierce pressure from his closest rivals throughout a thrilling Q2 showdown.
The battle for the front row ignited the moment the session went green. Marc Marquez briefly held the upper hand and broke the lap record before Martin ultimately stole the show. Meanwhile, rising star Pedro Acosta rounded out an all-Spanish front row after putting in a stellar performance during the closing minutes.
Before the pole battle unfolded, the Q1 session delivered plenty of drama. Big names like Pecco Bagnaia were forced into the opening qualifying phase after missing out on direct Q2 progression. Tension escalated further when a late yellow flag waved following a crash by Brad Binder at Turn 13.
Despite the disruption, resilience prevailed for the Trackhouse squad as they secured crucial advancement into the final pole shootout. The stage is now perfectly set for an electrifying Grand Prix battle on Sunday afternoon.
