A critical tyre situation forced a sudden schedule adjustment at Motegi, and Marc Marquez immediately seized control during the extended warm-up session. Race direction doubled the morning session from ten to twenty minutes after Michelin withdrew the soft rear tyre due to blistering issues during the previous day's Sprint.
With the specialized heat-resistant hard compound remaining largely untested throughout Friday and Saturday, teams scrambled to gather vital data before the Grand Prix. Marquez adapted brilliantly, slashing his lap time significantly on the hard rubber to post a commanding benchmark of 1 minute 42.957 seconds on his Ducati.
Aprilia's Marco Bezzecchi pushed hard to challenge the pace, finishing just 0.452 seconds adrift in second place after evaluating both medium and hard options. Meanwhile, championship leader Jorge Martin kept his title defense steady in third as the grid prepared for high-stakes tire management later in the afternoon.
