Vinales beats out Dovizioso to take pole position

Maverick Vinales has taken pole position for tomorrow’s San Marino GP, the Spaniard showing the rest of the field that he is still a legitimate championship contender.

Vinales was able to beat out championship rivals Andrea Dovizioso and Marc Marquez to start from first tomorrow. Marc Marquez’ session ended early, with the Spaniard crashing out on his final lap.
