Moto3: Valentin Perrone (Red Bull KTM Tech3) takes pole in Barcelona after a stunning late dash for the top, putting in a 1’46.679 to edge out David Muñoz (Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP) by just 0.005.
Rookie Brian Uriarte (Red Bull KTM Ajo) completes the front row.
After the first runs it was Almansa on top but it all came down to that final push. By the flag, the Spaniard had lost out not only on provisional pole but also the front row – with Uriarte taking over, and then Perrone coming through to take it by just 0.005. Muñoz slots in between the two, pushing Almansa down to fourth.
Row 2 sees the Spaniard joined by Marco Morelli (CFMoto Gaviota Aspar Team), with Jesus Rios (Rivacold Snipers Team) slotting into sixth. Championship leder Maximo Quiles (CFMoto Gaviota Aspar Team) starts P7, looking for a good launch to hammer home his advantage.
Joel Kelso (GRYD – Mlav Racing) takes P8 ahead of Adrian Fernandez (Leopard Racing), with Hakim Danish (AEON Credit – MT Helmets – MSI) completing the top ten – looking for more after his super speed to top Friday.
