BMW M Award qualifying battle continues in Brno

Quartararo currently leads the way after two pole positions from the opening two races in 2020

The MotoGP™ BMW M Award, which has been in place since 2003, continues this weekend at the Monster Energy Czech Republic Grand Prix as the premier class riders aim to topple Fabio Quartararo (Petronas Yamaha SRT) from his qualifying perch.

The winner of the award at the end of the season will bag a shiny new BMW M2 CS.
