Qualifying for the Moto2 class went t♛o form as Jake 𓆏Dixon once again was fastest, as he was in every session he has taken part in, whatever the weather, ahead of the Americas Grand Prix, in Austin Texas.

After dominating in the wet on Friday, Dixon was once again leading the way in the drying FP2 session before qualifying. After a small amount of time to get✨ into his groove and perfect his run, the Elf Mar💛c VDS Boscoscuro rider set out a lap of 2m 07.432s, which remained unmatched.

FP2 saw a comeback for Manuel Gonzalez, his bike s𝔍et up working as the track dried out, with further gains made in Q1 - finishing the session top for Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP - with a new lap record aboard his Kale𒊎x.

The Spanish rider, who had claimed the first two poles of the season🤪, was in eighteenth late in the session after his fast lap behind David Alonso was disrupted by the traffic ahead. A final run saw the championship leader able to use his kn🗹owledge from Q1 to improve to second, just 0.250s slower than Dixon.

Third went to Barry Baltus as his provisional pole lap from earlier in the session, behind teammate Aron Canet, held on for a front row start as he endured a late crash on his Fantic Racing Lino Sonego bike. The Belgan went for medical checks so was not present in Parc Ferme after the heavy fall.

Bꦿaltus’ former teammate, Zonta van den Goorbergh slid into second around the same time, with that lap holdiꩵng well for the RW - Idrofoglia rider, only dropping to fourth.

Canet was on the limit aft🦹er aiding his colleague, pushing too hard he found himself a solid fifth after securing pole at CO꧋TA last season.

He was stalked around by rookie David Alonso, lifting the CFMoto Power Electri💝cs Aspar bike to a Moto2 best for the Spaniard frmm tent to sixth as the chequered flag waved.

Tony Arbolino arrived to Q2 with the second best time, as the Boscoscuro riders were fast in the wet Friday sessions. The Italian couldn’t quite match that form f🉐or Blu Cru Pramac Yamaha, qualifying a respectable seventh.

Marcos Ramirez was flying the flag at home for the Am𓆏erican Racing team, putting their bike eighth on the grid ahead of their home race.

Filip Salac was last after the second, timed practice session in the wet on Friday. The Elf Marc VDS rider put in a gritty performance to move through Q1 for ninth on ꦍthe grid, ahead of fellow graduate from the first session Deniz Oncu, who completes the top ten on the grid for Red Bull KTM Ajo.

Sergio Garcia remains out of action at QJMotor - Frinsa  - MSI. His replacement in the USA is Oscar Gutierrez.  He fell in F🐬P1 but was a much improved ninth  in the second session. That saw him straight to Q2 where he finished 16th.

After a strong start to the weekend Celestino Vietti was almost three seconds off the lead pace in 18th, and was late out of the pits trying to fix his issues as the session drew to a𒆙💦 close.

Q1 - No escape for home hero Roberts

The session was lead by the lap𒁃 re🐎cord performance of Gonzalez, with Alonso, Salac and Oncu all also moving on.

American rider Joe Roberts was an improved 17th in FP2, qualifying saw him take up🃏 his place in Q1, where he moved into the progression places late on, looking to have secured a pr💃ogression slot. Salac was later to the flag, going from fifth to second in the session, leaving the American a disappointing fifth - for 19th on the grid at home.

Diogo Moreira had also been off the pace and failed to recover in thꦑe opening qualifying session, placing seventh, for 21st on the grid for Italtrans.

Darryn Binder crashed in Q1, contributing to his 27th placing, while Adrian Huertas was last and has picked up a long lap penalty for the race to add to his woes.
