First row all Italian in terms of motorcycles at Le Mans, with the double from the factory Ducati with Francesco Bagnaia author of the pole position in 1’30 ″ 450 in front of Jack Miller, pulled by Pecco in the second run in Q2. No front row for Fabio Quartararo, ousted by Aleix Espargaró’s Aprilia who completed the trio made in Italy in the front row. This is Ducati’s first pole position at Le Mans.
Second row for Quartararo in fact, then Enea Bastianini and Johann Zarco. Third row for the Suzuki of Joan Mir and Alex Rins and the Ducati of a shadowed Jorge Martin, the Honda of Marc Marquez, Pol Espargaró and Takaaki Nakagami conclude the picture of Q2.

Sixth row for Fabio Di Giannantonio and for the disastrous official KTMs of Brad Binder and Miguel Oliveira.
