Having twice dodged misfortune in practice, Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro claimed pole position for his home Spanish Grand Prix after edging Jack Miller and Jorge Martin in a rain-hit qualifying session in Jerez on Saturday.

Brad Binder and Francesco Bagnaia will line up fourth and fifth on Sunday after coming through a hotly contested Q1.
Ducati's Enea Bastianini, who suffered a right shoulder blade fracture in the MotoGP season-opener in Portugal last month, was expected to return to competition this weekend but withdrew in pain.
