Miller was the only man to duck under the 1min30sec bar, topping the times from
Johann Zarco on Ducati’s satellite Pramac bike and KTM’s South African Brad
Binder.
Bagnaia, who holds a 23-point lead over reigning
world champion Fabio Quartararo, had to settle for ninth, one place behind his
only rival for the MotoGP crown.
Bagnaia has the luxury of going into Sunday’s finale
aware that if Quartararo wins he only has to finish 14th to seal his maiden
MotoGP world championship.
He will be relieved to have scraped into the top 10
after the three practice sessions, which means he goes into the second
qualifying session.
All the other riders below take part in the first
session with only the top two then graduating to Q2 to compete for the top 12
places on the grid.
