*Fermin Aldeguer starts the Argentina MotoGP from 13th but must serve a long lap penalty, fo𓂃r his incident in Saturday's𒁃 sprint with Miguel Oliveira.
Ai Ogu❀ra and Luca Marini are the riders directly behind Aldeguer who will try to take advantage.
**Miguel Oliveira of Pramac was due to start from 17th but has withdrawn from the Argentina MotoGP due to injury sustained in Saturda🎶y's sprint. Therefore, Raul Fernandez, Somkiat Chantra, Maverick Vinales and Enea Bastianini will be bumped forwards by one spot.
Lorenzo Savadori, replacing the injured MotoGP champion Jorge Martin at Aprilia, was du🅷e to start from the back of the grid. However, he has also been ruled out of participation after a medical check on his shoulder injury.
