Aragon Moto2 FP3: Marquez again but Alex version

After the emotions distilled by a MotoGP which has severely tested its men and its equipment, Moto2 took to the Aragon track to continue the debates dominated the day before by Nakagami under the threat of Sam Lowes.

FP2	1'53.164 Tito Rabat	1'53.702 Takaaki Nakagami

WUP	1'52.973 Tito Rabat

All time lap record	1'52.232 Tito Rabat

The session was first marked by the falls of Simeon at turn 2 and Cortese to 3. A series then completed by Marini et Danny Kent at turn 2. It will be remembered that the reigning Moto3 World Champion is the only representative of the Leopard team this weekend after his teammate Olive tree was forced to forfeit after an accident with Morbidely the day before. A collision from which he recovered with a broken collarbone in four while the Italian received a penalty point on his good driving license.

We will take this opportunity to point out that the same Kent has assured his future in Moto2, an adventure that he will continue with the Kieffer structure and a new teammate from Supersport: the American PJ Jacobsen.

But the most notable accident of the session was that of a alex rins in difficulty since the start of the meeting in Aragon. The challenger of John Zarco in the race for the title finished the year in twentieth place. Very far from its ambitions and its French rival.

He has regained color since yesterday and although he was in control of the session for a good while, he had to let go in the face of Alex Marquez. He is nevertheless his runner-up and in a good rhythm.

Third, Sam Lowes he doesn't give up in his own style, unlike Nakagami leader on Friday and now fifth behind Folger and in front Morbidely.  Lüthi is ninth in front Baldassari which closes the top 10 where also point Simon et Schrotter.
