MotoGP Valencia - Full Qualifying Results
Full Qualifying results and grid line-up for the 2018 Valencia MotoGP, round 19 of 19.
Vinales takes pole position for the Valencia MotoGP season finale.
The session took place on a dry track with damp patches, with world champion Marquez falling on his out-lap - the Spaniard appearing to dislocate his left shoulder once again as he rolled through the gravel.
The Repsol Honda rider was still holding his shoulder as he arrived back in the paddock, where he headed to the team truck to presumably put the shoulder back in place - before returning to the track to finish qualifying!
Xavier Simeon has been declared unfit after his friday fall.
Pedrosa is making his final MotoGP appearance before retirement. Lorenzo is returning from wrist surgery for his final Ducati appearance. Bradl is filling in for the injured Cal Crutchlow at LCR Honda.
Tito Rabat, who plans to return at the post-race test, is again replaced by WorldSBK rider Jordi Torres, who is himself returning from a hand injury at Sepang.
