Early in the Q2 session, Marco Bezzecchi (Mooney VR46 Racing Team/Ducati) lost control of his bike and had a significant crash. Fortunately, he escaped with no major injuries and quickly caught a ride back to the pits to get on his second bike.

After the initial flying laps, Martín (Prima Pramac/Ducati) led with a 0.411s margin over Marc Márquez (Repsol Honda), with Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM) in third. On his second lap, Martín extended his lead further with a new lap record: 1m43.198s. Jack Miller (Red Bull KTM) moved into second place.

With roughly three minutes remaining, Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati) secured a spot on the front row with the third fastest time, but he was quickly overtaken by Fabio Di Giannantonio (Gresini/Ducati), Márquez, and Aleix Espargaró (Aprilia).

The championship leader reacted and improved to take second place, but remained 0.171s behind leader Martín. Martín didn’t improve his time but did enough to secure pole position. Bagnaia and Miller finished in second and third, with Bezzecchi in fourth after his crash. Binder and Di Giannantonio completed the second row in front of Márquez.
