MotoGP Spanish GP Jerez Qualifying Full Results: Marc Marquez back on pole, Martin penalized

Updated: 13:12, 25 Apr

Andrew McLarney is a MotoGP reporter for GPBlog. A former karate black belt and two-time national champion by age 17, his early passion for combat sports evolved into a deep interest in UFC and eventually motorsport — with MotoGP becoming his primary focus.

The grid is set for this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez and it was Marc Marquez who took pole position.

The session, which took place under tricky mixed conditions, saw both Gresini riders Fermin Aldeguer and Alex Marquez crash out, along with Aprilia's Jorge Martin - who also faced a 3-place grid penalty after riding slowly on the racing line in Friday Practice.

Johann Zarco almost stole the top spot but made a mistake at the final corner and remained in P2. Fabio Di Giannantonio makes up the front row.

It was another disappointing day for Yamaha as not a single one of their five riders made it out of Q1 - however, Augusto Fernandez posted the fastest time of the lot - which could be a promising sign for their development.
