Pole position for Johann Zarco in Assen, with the record time of 1:36.346, a crazy lap for a Moto2, even faster than Marco Melandri's best lap on his MotoGP. The Frenchman, leader of the standings, is two tenths behind Tito Rabat. Excellent 4th time for Simone Courses who crashes at the start of the practice session, but the time he obtained at the start of the session will allow him to start from the beginning of the second row tomorrow.

The test session was an entire challenge, with record times, between Zarco and Rabat, who literally demolished Marc Marquez's previous Moto2 record. Third time, half a second from pole for Sam Lowes, then as already mentioned, excellent 4th for our Corsi, who however crashes at the start of the session and thus loses the chance to fight with the first two.

Folger and Simeon will start in the second row together with Corsi, while in the third row we find Rins, Luth and our Baldassarri, author of a good qualifying, even if he was 1.2 seconds from pole.

The other Italian, Franco Morbidelli instead he will start with the 20th fastest time.
