Maverick Vinales took pole position at Misano for the second straight week in qualifying Saturday for the Emilia-Romagna MotoGP.
In last weekend’s San Marino Grand Prix, the Spaniard who rides for Yamaha, could not capitalise and finished sixth.
Italian Francesco Bagnaia of Ducati-Pramac recorded a faster time at the end of the session, becoming the first rider to dip under 1min 31sec, but he touched the out-of-bounds green paint with both tyres on the final corner and his time was scrubbed out.
