Luca Marini had an accident, whose motorcycle began to burn on the asphalt. Fortunately, the driver was completely fine and made it to the pits

MOTOGP C. VALENCIANA – FP3 Start the session! The first riders set off to try to drop times on this sunny morning at the Cheste circuit

09:53South African Brad Binder closed the top ten positions with direct access to the second classification,
leaving behind Alex Rins (Suzuki GS RR), eleventh, Maverick Viñales (Aprilia RS-GP), Aleix Espargaró (Aprilia RS-GP) and Joan Mir (Suzuki GSX RR).in addition to Marco Bezzecchi (Ducati Desmosedici GP22), Franco Morbidelli, Alex Márquez (Honda RC 213 V)

09:51Bagnaia is in charge of “turning the tide back” by climbing to fourth positionalthough he was overtaken by some of his rivals, but “stuck” five thousandths of a second off Quartararo’s record who managed to finish ninth on day one, with the French eighth

09:50Jack Miller was the first to lower his time, 1:30.608, followed closely by Jorge Martín both were overtaken first by Luca Marini, who cut the Australian’s time by four tenths of a second, and then by a very effective Marc Márquez on his Repsol Honda, who was more than three tenths of a second behind the Italian.

09:50The Ducati riders are gradually getting closer to the top positions, with Luca Marini and Jorge Martín “sandwiching” Fabio Quartararo, and Jack Miller and “Pecco” Bagnaia among the seven fastest in the category. Already in the last quarter of the session, all drivers made an important rear tire change, and with little fuel in the tank, they tried to improve their personal records.

09:49The Yamaha rider dominated the first part of the session with a time of 1:31.149 until the session came as a surprise.
with the increase in the first place of the Italian Luca Marini (Ducati Desmosedici GP22), with only 39 thousandths of a second ahead of the Frenchman, 1:31.110

09:44Many riders, without crossing the middle of the session, have already lowered their record in the morning, except for Marc Márquez and the South African Brad Binder (KTM RC 16) in the top ten classified,
always with the Frenchman Quartararo as the benchmark of the category

09:43Shortly after another accident, this time starring Aleix Espargaró (Aprilia RS-GP), who crashed at turn five and damaged his bike, forcing him to walk back to his workshop to continue on his second bike

09:40As had happened to him in the morning, Marc Márquez quickly went down again and if the first accident was in turn two of the Valencian track, in the second mishap it was in turn one, and in both cases after losing grip on the front end of his Repsol Honda

09:38The second round of MotoGP free practice got off to a rather hectic start, with an initial crash for Italian Franco Morbidelli (Yamaha YZR M 1),
while Alex Rins (Suzuki GSX RR) and Jack Miller (Ducati Desmosedici GP22), dislodged Fabio Quartararo from first positionwhich did not take long to regain a position

09:37Luca Marini set the best time in the category with 1:30.217, more than a tenth of a second ahead of Jorge Martín and Jack Miller.
Marc Márquez (Repsol Honda RC 213 V), despite two falls throughout the day, finished in fourth place 173 thousandths behind Marini, with Quartararo (Yamaha YZR M 1), sixth, and “Pecco” Bagnaia (Ducati Desmosedici GP22), following his situation as if “defending” his position in the championship

09:27¡
How are you! We started directly the third free practice sessions of the Valencian Community Grand Prix. In yesterday’s session,
Fabio Quartararo (Yamaha YZR M 1) did nothing against the “Ducati Offensive” led by an extraordinary Luca Marini, ahead of Jorge Martín and Jack Miller.
