A strong run of timesheet topping solo laps saw Collin Veijer take pole with record pace in qualifying for round nine, the Moto3 Ge🀅rman Grand Prix.

The Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP rider𝕴 was instantly fast and almost always solo on track as his lap time 🐻dropped over and over.

Championship leader dropped a new benchmark, and the rider🐷 from the Netherlands reacted. With David Munoz near enough to use as a reference ahead, though still alone he was able to refine his lap further to take the chequered flag with a new record lap of 1m 24.885s - for his first pole of the season.

Alonso’s lap on the CF Moto Gaviota Aspar was enough to hold second in a much more composed performance from the Colombian, finishing 0.336s slower after a fall filled practice.

Luca Lunetta was a master of placing himself well on track and his final tow in a fast grou🅷p brought a front row start for the SIC58 Squadra Corse rookie, in third just a thousandth away from second.

Adrian Fernandez arrived with the top time. Having finished free practice first the Leopard rider returnee to top the🤡 timesheets again in P2 with a rec🦂ord lap.

On a lap that looked destined to move the Spaniard into first🧜 he was disturbed by his teammate Angel Piqueras, who had been sen🅘t out to join on behind, which caused him to lose enough time to miss out.

Fernandez then caused trouble of his own, running into Jose Antonio Ruꦐeda while he was on a hot lap full of red sectors on his way to fourth.

Despite that contact the Red Bull KTM Ajo rider kept going and finished ꧋one place behind in fifth.

Munoz was s🌄ixth for BOE Motorsports, only just ahead of Scott Ogden, the best of the riders to move up from Q1 for the MLav Racing team.

Taiyo Furusato spent much of his time shadowing others after setting🦋 his own early benchmark on his way to eighth for Honda Team Asia.

His fellow countryman Tatsuki Suzuki was ninth quickest for the Snipers team, while P1 leader Stefano Nepa compleꦕted the top ten for LevelUp - MTA.

Assen winner Ivan Ortola spent much of his time on track chasing aro🌃und with Nepa, on his way to twelfth on the grid for MT helmets - MSI, behind teammate Ryusei Yamanaka.

Q1 - Holgado in session for second week in a row

Daniel Holgado was once again🤡 on the back foot, and as was the case in Assen, needing to set a fast Q1 time to progre🐷ss.

Eleventh overnight following his Friday performance, the former championship leader saw his time drift𝕴 backwards, with a late crash when in 14th sealing his fate, as the final push from the rest of the field saw him fin𝐆ish P2 in 16thas he was left gesticulating in the gravel, indicating contact.

A first flier for the Spaniard in Q1 saw him to fourth, needing a second run as that left him in danger of being pushed out of the progression places. On his return to track Holgado returned to first b𒈔riefly before Joel Esteban (16th) put in the sessions best lap to head to Q2 with the best time.🧔 They were joined in moving on by Matteo Bertelle and Ogden.

In Q2 there was little improvement for Holgado, le𝓀ading to a 13th place grid start.

Red Bꦕull KTM Ajo’s Xabi Zurutuza just missed out, improving on his final run as he mixed it on track with Ogden, but only enough for fifth in the session, so will be in 19th on the grid. It was a similar story for MLav rider Joshua What🌺ley as he tagged onto the back of the same group, climbing to sixth for 20th place.

Penalties aplenty in Moto3

There were several penalties handed out for the slow riding already seen afte🐠r the huge group thಞat hung around the track in P2 were sanctioned.

A double long♈ lap penalty was awarded to Zurutuza, Lu⛄netta, Carraro, Rossi and Buasri, with single trips coming for Nepa, Ortola, Almansa and Yamanaka. Furusato, Suzuki and Ogden all received a warning.

The heaviest penalties went to Farioli🅺, Bertelle Esteban and Whatley, all of whom have a pit lane start, nul🐎lifying their qualifying placing.

Crashes, injuries and replacements

Q1 saw a fall for Nicola Carraro, with a further crash in Q2 for Bertelle after moving into the session leaving him 18th for the Rivacold Snipers team.
