Moto2: Diogo Moreira (Italtrans Racing Team) will start the Moto2 Australian Grand Prix from pole position on Sunday after a dramatic, tantalising Q2 played out at Phillip Island.
Home hero Senna Agius will line up in the middle of the front row, with his Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP teammate Manuel Gonzalez completing a top three that was split by a slender 0.076s.
Jake Dixon (ELF Marc VDS Racing Team) spearheads the second row and is joined there by Q1 graduate Daniel Holgado and the latter’s CFMOTO Power Electronics Aspar teammate David Alonso.
Aron Canet (Fantic Racing) crashed early in Q2 at Turn 4, but a rapid repair job from the mechanics saw the Spaniard able to earn P8 in the closing moments.
Barry Baltus (Fantic Racing), the rider P4 in the World Championship, launches from P10, meaning the top contenders in the title race are all in the mix in Australia.
