Laying down an early marker, Alvaro Bautista immediately broke into the 1m 31s barrier as he moved ahead of Toprak Razgatlioglu.
Rejuvenated after a positive Friday, Bautista was clearly confident as he looked aggressive aboard his Panigale V4 R.
Nicolo Bulega made it a factory Ducati 1-2 as he went top by -0.095s, before a rare mistake from Razgatlioglu took place at turn one as he ran through the gravel trying to follow Bautista.
The two-time world champion then returned to the top of the leaderboard, with Bautista delivering a time of 1:31.538s.
After fitting a new tyre, Razgatlioglu smashed the lap record as he set a new all-time lap record.
A strong showing from Andrea Iannone resulted in him moving into P2 late on, becoming the top Ducati in the process.
