The last MotoGP free practice session on a revisited Montmélo track will have definitively reassured Honda about the benefits of the reform. Marc Marquez was imperial in front of Crutchlow's other RC213V. Meanwhile, Jorge Lorenzo returned to the box with the fourteenth time, more than two seconds behind the reference time.
Valentino Rossi having for its part had all the difficulty in the world to climb to seventh place, it is nothing to say that the Yamaha troops are worried. The new fourth sector subjects them to torture while the lower temperatures are also allies for the machines bearing the winged emblem.
For their part, the men in Ducati do not shy away from their pleasure with a Iannone third in front Maverick Vinales who has not said his last word with the Suzuki. The session was marked by the second fall of Petrucci this weekend in turn 5 which was also unpleasant with Baptist. Both men are unhurt and will be there for qualifying.
