After the initial flying laps, Furusato (Honda Team Asia) was in the lead, ahead of his teammate Mario Aji, followed by Collin Veijer (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP) and the returning Adrián Fernández (Leopard Racing/Honda).

The standings changed during the second set of flying laps, but only Fernández dropped out of the top four after Ryusei Yamanaka (Gaviota GasGas Aspar) joined the mix.

Veijer took the lead ahead of Furusato, while Yamanaka improved further to reach third place. Aji dropped to fourth but was still in a position to advance to Q2. However, when Fernández improved in the last three minutes to reach third place, Aji lost his spot in the top four.

Joshua Whatley (VisionTrack Racing Team/Honda) moved up to fourth in the final minute, displacing Yamanaka from Q2. Furusato still managed to outpace Veijer by 0.140s, but the composition of the qualifying positions remained unchanged. Fernández and Whatley also advanced to Q2, a goal Yamanaka missed by 12 thousandths of a second.

Deniz Öncü is through to the second qualifying for the Moto3 Ijndian GP. The Turkish rider dominated Q1 on Saturday at the Buddh International Circuit to secure one of the last four spots in the battle for pole position. Daniel Holgado, the championship leader, was eliminated after his best lap was cancelled.

After the initial flying laps, Öncü (Red Bull KTM Ajo) held the lead, ahead of Kaito Toba (SIC58 Squadra Corse/Honda), Scott Ogden, and Joshua Whatley (VisionTrack Racing Team/Honda).

Holgado (Red Bull KTM Tech3) managed to climb to the second, pushing Whatley out of the qualification zone. Meanwhile, Öncü continued to strengthen his lead and kept his position throughout the session.

Later on, Ogden reinforced his place in the top four by moving into second place. However, he was overtaken by Holgado, Ryusei Yamanaka (SIC58 Squadra Corse/Honda), and Toba in the final minute. Ogden managed to recover against Toba to advance to Q2.

After the session ended, Holgado had his fastest lap time invalidated for exceeding track limits.

This situation dropped the championship leader to fifth place, just 0.060 seconds behind the fourth-placed Toba, who secured a spot in Q2. Therefore, Öncü, Yamanaka, Ogden, and Toba advanced.
