Moto2 and Moto3 Qualifying Results | Spanish talents storm to pole in Italy

After Aprilia's Marco Bezzecchi claimed pole position with a new lap record in MotoGP, it was the lower categories' turn to take to the track at Mugello. Manuel Gonzalez continued his strong season in Moto2 by storming to P1, finishing two and a half seconds ahead of Filip Salac in second place. Alex Escrig completed the top three.

Aspar's Daniel Holgado finished fourth ahead of Dutch talent Collin Veijer. They were six and seven tenths of a second off pole respectively. Alonso Lopez will start from the final spot on the second row of the grid tomorrow.

In Moto3, David Almansa, the winner of the first Grand Prix of the season, claimed pole position by the smallest of margins. The Spaniard returned to the best slot on the grid for the first time since suffering an injury earlier this season.

He finished ahead of Hakim Danish, who had to fight his way through Q1 before earning a place on the front row for Sunday. Australia's Joel Kelso was on course to snatch pole position from Almansa in the closing seconds, but ultimately set only the third-fastest time. The championship leader and winner of the last three races, Maximo Quiles, will start from P15.
