The 25-year-old timed 1min 45.393sec to finish
0.276sec ahead of Aleix Espargaro to claim first place with fellow Italian Luca
Marini 0.369sec off the pace.
Bagnaia one was of six
Ducati riders in the top 10
as Italian teams dominated proceedings at Mugello.
France’s reigning champion Fabio Quartararo
meanwhile only just kept hold of 10th place and a spot in Saturday afternoon’s
second qualifying run which decides the top positions on the grid for Sunday’s
race.
Bagnaia came off at turn 12 on one of the laps and
his bike hit the tire wall, but he was unhurt.
Yamaha rider Quartararo leads the championship
standings heading into the GP, 14 points ahead of Aprilia’s Espargaro. Bagnaia
is 46 points back in seventh.
Former champions
Marc Marquez and Joan Mir will have to take
part in the first qualifying run after finishing 21st and 16th respectively.
