In the Moto2 race at the Tissot Australian Grand Prix on Sunday, Tito Rabat will get away from the front of the grid as he looks to win the title, followed by Johann Zarco and Mika Kallio on row one.

Rabat (Marc VDS Racing Team) continued his domination at Phillip Island, producing a recording-breaking lap of 1m32.470s to secure pole position ahead of Zarco (AirAsia Caterham) by just 0.015s.

Rabat’s championship rival Kallio (Marc VDS Racing Team) completed the front row and was 0.228s behind his teammate.

The top five were split by a margin of just 0.287s, both Maverick Viñales (Paginas Amarillas HP 40) and Thomas Luthi (Interwetten Sitag) putting in strong lap times in fourth and fifth respectively. Sandro Cortese (Dynavolt Intact GP) completes row two.

Sam Lowes (Speed Up), Jordi Torres (Mapfre Aspar Team) and Xavier Simeon (Federal Oil Gresini) will all line up on row three. Marcel Schrotter (Tech 3) completed a top 10 with all the riders qualifying within half a second of pole.

Queensland veteran Anthony West rode his QMMF Speed Up to 25th on the grid, Aiden Wagner (Marc VDS Racing Team) will debut in 31st and fellow wildcard Max Croker (Tasca Racing) narrowly made the cut to round out the field in 34th.
