After dropping to sixth, the QJMotor rider returned to track after a spell in the pits, to set a new record lap of 1’ 42.791s aboard his Kalex to go straight to Q2 with the top time.

Moments earlier, the record had already been broken by Daniel Holgado, who finished second quickest for Aspar, just 0.058s separating the two riders as they dipped under the old benchmark.

Senna Agius was first out for a final run and that had seen the Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP rider top of the standings before the Spanish duo. The Australian improved further in time, but not position, finishing Practice third.

Alonso Lopez was the early session leader on his way to fourth for Italjet Gresini.

It took two attempts for Celestino Vietti to guarantee a direct Q2 placement. The SpeedRS rider had dropped to 16th heading into the final five minutes, with a first push lap taking the Italian back to 14th - the at risk spot.

Vietti was down in 18th at the chequered flag, making up huge time in the final sector and go fifth, and become the top Boscoscuro in Practice.

Championship leader Manuel Gonzalez was sixth on the second Dynavolt bike, but like Vietti ahead, just over half a second from the new record best of Aragon.

David Munoz was seventh for Italtrans, another rider finding time in the final sector of track, to lift himself from 22nd, with Alex Escrig leaving it even later to gain a Q2 place, moving from 21st to eighth for Forward right at the end of the session, a huge improvement on his 25th in FP1 where he was two seconds off the lead pace.

Collin Veijer was ninth quickest for Red Bull KTM Ajo, with Blu Cru Pramac Yamaha title challenger Izan Guevara completing the top 10.

Ayumu Sasaki was 11th quickest for Momoven Idrofoglia RW Racing and  Barry Baltus 12th for Fantic Racing.

Angel Piqueras was the top rookie in 13th for QJMotor, just ahead of fellow class newcomer Taiyo Furusato in the final Q2 slot in 14th for Idemitsu Honda Team Asia, a huge turnaround for the Japanese rider, who had been last in FP1.

Escrig’s last run demoted Silverstone winner Filip Salac to 15th and a Q1 appearance for American Racing.

David Alonso will also feature in the first qualifying session - his last lap was predicted to lift the Aspar rider from 19th to 12th but lost time in the final sector to finish Friday 18th.

The 2025 Aragon race winner is also Q1 bound, with Deniz Oncu only managing a lap quick enough for 23rd as the woes at Marc VDS continue - team-mate Aron Canet was further back, in 26th .

There is an extra wildcard in Moto2 for the Aragon round, with Marcos Ramirez (27th) making a return to the intermediate class, with Klint Forward Racing.
