Marc Marquez tops MotoGP German GP practice at Sachsenring

Marquez leading at Sachsenring is close to a given, but the more telling detail is how broadly Ducati and Aprilia have locked out the top of the order — four Ducatis and four Aprilias in the top ten leaves everyone else scrambling. Bagnaia going through Q1 is the headline within the headline: the championship leader will need to fight his way into Q2 at a track that should suit his machinery. Miller's fifth for Pramac Yamaha on the back of a tow is an asterisk worth noting — replicating that in qualifying without the same opportunity will be the real test of where Yamaha actually stands here.
