Behind the Piedmontese rider are two other Ducatis: the Gresini one of Marc Marquez, second, and the Pramac one of the MotoGP leader, Jorge Martin. Two are also the Ducatis that complete the top 5: the Pramac of Franco Morbidelli and the Factory one of Enea Bastianini.

Also entering Q2 are Pedro Acosta (GasGas), Marco Bezzecchi (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team), Maverick Viñales (Aprilia), Fabio Quartararo (Yamaha) and Jack Miller (KTM).
