JAKARTA - There was something interesting this Saturday when Ducati Lenovo Team racer Marc Marquez won the pole position of the Aragon Grand Prix, with a time of 1 minute 45.704 seconds, as well as breaking the all-time lap record at MotorLand which he previously held.
Marquez appeared impressive in the second qualifying session (Q2) with a sharp shot on the final lap. His time record was 0.260 seconds ahead of his younger brother, Alex Marquez (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP) who had to settle for the second starting position.
Meanwhile, as reported by ANTARA, Saturday, June 7, Franco Morbidelli (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) appeared consistent to complete the row front position with a time of 1:46.
Q1's previous qualification was marked by an incident when Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia Racing) fell at Turn 3. Even though he was not injured, his fate was unlucky to accompany Bezzecki because his motorbike was in trouble and he had to settle for starting the race from the 20th position, right behind Lorenzo Savadori.
The Q1 drama continues when three racers compete fiercely for two tickets to Q2. Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team) took the lead before being overtaken by Raul Fernandez (Trackhouse MotoGP Team) and was finally eliminated by Fabio Di Giannantonio (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team), who took first place in Q1 at the end of the session.
Marc Marquez immediately stepped on the gas in Q2 with an opening time of 1 minute 45.986 seconds, lasting quite a long time at the top before being overtaken by Alex Marquez and Franco Morbidelli.
However, at the end of the session, Marc again spurred his Desmodedici GP25 to the maximum to record a time of 1 minute 45,704 seconds that was not overtaken until the end.
