2019 Qatar MotoGP: 4 Predictions for qualifying

#2 Closely packed top-10 in MotoGP

The top-10 could be a close affair

With the way the things have turned out so far in the first two free practice sessions of the 2019 season, it is highly probable that the top-10 positions on the grid could be classified with less than a second to separate the riders.

The first free practice session saw the top-17 being separated by less than a second while FP2 displayed the top-9 in contention with less than a second to split them.

Apart from the factory teams of the Honda, Yamaha and the Ducati, the 24-year-old Jack Miller of the Alma Pramac Racing team showcased good pace, finishing eighth and third in FP1 and FP2 respectively.

Both the riders of the Petronas Yamaha SRT team and Alex Rins of Suzuki Factory Racing are the other riders to watch out for during the qualifying sessions as they shape up the top-10 positions on the starting grid.
