Japanese GP, Motegi: Moto3 qualifying results

Classified results from the Moto3 qualifying session at Motegi.

Free practice 3 was cancelled due to poor visibility and heavy rain.
Qualifying had a delayed start due to weather. The session was extended to 55mins to compensate for zero free practice, and was run in pretty atrocious conditions with standing water in parts. Rain returned soon after start, and riders were running with taped up radiators due to low ambient temperature. There were deteriorating conditions as session progressed, but a slight improvement towards the end.
John qualified in 22nd, 2:12.468 (+3.081)
