Joe Roberts took pole position at the 2020 Czech Republic Grand Prix. The American rider has reappeared in Brno after his surprising slump in the Jerez double. Roberts gets his second pole position of the season and will try to be more consistent than in Qatar to be at least on the podium.

The disaster has been for Tetsuta Nagashima, the leader of the World Cup, who has had many problems and has finished twenty-first. The Japanese driver will have to come back a lot if he wants to keep the lead in tomorrow's race. It seems that Nagashima has entered a crisis after his accident in Jerez.

Nagashima will start 21st and that opens up the options for many rivals

Sam Lowes looked like the favorite to take pole position as he was the fastest driver of the whole weekend, but was outmatched by Roberts in Q2. Even so, Lowes is going to start second and is clearly the favorite to win.. He has to temper his nerves, forget the irregularity and come out firmly for his first win of the year.

Although he must not lose his eye on Roberts and, above all, on Enea Bastianini. The Italian already won the cheetah by being silent in Jerez and continues with the same plan in Brno. He will start third, completing the first row, he has a very good rhythm and he also knows that this opportunity is unique to get ahead in the world championship, with Nagashima so far behind.

Fourth will start Hafizh Syahrin, which has been the first Speed Up. Surprising result of the Malaysian, who last year raced in MotoGP and who was not standing out too much on his return to the intermediate category. However, today Syahrin has put on the Jorge Navarro costume, who has been overshadowed in eleventh position.

They also have podium options Marco Bezzecchi and Jorge Martín, who start fifth and sixth. The two are having an irregular season and need to assert themselves in Brno if they do not want to see how the World Cup is definitely away from them. In the case of the Spanish, the best of all today, he has the weight of pulling KTM with Nagashima in poor shape.

Luca Marini, the winner of the first Jerez race and another of the important men in the world championship, he will come out tenth, just ahead of Navarro and in a pretty tight situation. We will see if Valentino Rossi's brother is able to recover a little and thus take advantage of Nagashima's problems.

Difficult day for Arón Canet, who was in Q2 but could only be fifteenth. The rookie is suffering a lot with his arms, he feels pain and that weighs him down. Even so, he will come out one position ahead of the other Spanish debutant, Marcos Ramírez, who is being much more competitive in his fourth Moto2 race.
