Selain Zarco, ada Danilo Petrucci di posisi 2 dan Aleix Espargaro di posisi 4.
Marc Marquez yang di hasil akhir berada di posisi 3 sebenarnya sempat mendominasi sesi kualifikasi.
Sayangnya di akhir sesi Marc Marquez berjudi dengan menggunakan ban slick.
Marquez harus rela posisinya tergeser karena ban slick belum bekerja maksimal di lintasan yang belum cukup kering.
