Assen MotoGP: Which riders have made it into Q2 after Practice?
At the 2026 MotoGP Dutch Grand Prix in Assen, Friday practice reshaped the qualification picture, with Marco Bezzecchi securing direct passage to Q2 after avoiding the impact of a race ban. The article says Aprilia’s Bezzecchi led the session and earned the two remaining spots to go straight into Q2 qualifying, after a late red flag set up a one-lap restart. In that restart, Pedro Acosta jumped to third for KTM, ahead of Ai Ogura, while Ducati’s Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia broke into the top ten to stay clear of Q1. The rundown notes that Bagnaia led the Ducati pairing ahead of Marc Marquez. Fabio Di Giannantonio of VR46 finished seventh, while Tech3 KTM’s Enea Bastianini, along with Martin and Alex Marquez, appear among the Q2-qualified riders. The status of Alex Marquez was described as uncertain after a late crash triggered the red flag.
