Repsol Honda rider Marc Marquez’s 1m20.336s lap was enough to net him first position on the grid for this weekend’s MotoGP battle.

This is Marquez’s sixth-consecutive pole at the Sachsenring, leading to victory for the Spaniard for the last five years in a row. Joining him on the front row are his team mate Dani Pedrosa and Jorge Lorenzo (Movistar Yamaha).

Andrea Iannone (Ducati Team) will start from fourth place, with Yonny Hernández (Octo Pramac Racing) in a very respectable fifth after having to fight his way through Q1. Valentino Rossi (Movistar Yamaha) completes the second row in sixth.

The Espargaro brothers will have a chance to wish each other luck before the lights go out, given that they start together on the third row with Aleix (Team Suzuki Ecstar) in seventh and Pol (Monster Yamaha Tech 3) in eighth.

Rounding out the top 10 are British riders Bradley Smith (Monster Yamaha Tech 3) and Cal Crutchlow (CWM-LCR Honda), who start from ninth and 10th respectively.

French rider Johann Zarco will start from pole for the German GP Moto2 race with a 1m24.044s, ahead of Xavier Simeón and Franco Morbidelli. Queensland’s Anthony West (QMMF Racing Team) was within a second of the pole time, starting 18th.

The Leopard Racing rider Danny Kent lapped the Sachsenring over 0.5 sec faster than the rest of the pack to take Moto3 pole despite his first crash of the season late in the session.

Joining the Brit on the front row are Enea Bastianini (Gresini Racing Team Moto3) and Karel Hanika (Red Bull KTM Ajo), while young Aussie rookie Remy Gardner (CIP Mahindra) will start out of 27th.
