Combined Qualifying results (decided by average lap time, per team) for the Suzuka 8 Hours endurance race after the second of Friday's qualifying sessions.
As with Qualifying 1, each rider in a team was assigned a colour - blue, yellow or red - and had one session on track.
Yamaha Factory Racing set the fastest average time of the day during Qualifying 1, when Katsuyuki Nakasuga also delivered what would be the best individual lap at 2m 5.922s.
Qualifying 2 again saw Nakasuga lead the blue session, with team-mate Alex Lowes then fastest of the yellow riders and Yoshimura Suzuki's Kazuki Watanabe quickest of the reds.
While the Yamaha Factory riders did not improve on their morning laps they remained fastest overall, but with their average advantage over the Kawasaki Racing Team cut to just 0.014s.
The top ten teams after Friday qualifying now go forward to Saturday's Superpole session.
Friday's track activities will end with a one-hour night free practice...
