17° on the track, 16° in the stands, but no rain, even if the track with the resurfaced Sachsenring surface is only partially dry, here are the conditions which were offered to Moto2 for a last test gallop before the race this afternoon. Morbidely was he going to impose his law again? To be seen, but the field included one withdrawal on this Sunday of the German Grand Prix: Luca Marini, injured in the left shoulder.

To get back into the swing of things, here is the table which summarizes what has happened since Friday…

The local public will only have eyes for their compatriot Sandra Cortese who, with his Suter, qualified on the front row of his national meeting. Such an interesting performance for the former Moto3 World Champion who is not certain of seeing his contract renewed for 2018. Finally, the curiosity of the day will be Hector Garzo, replacing Virgin on the Mistral610 and who blew everyone away by qualifying in the top 5.

It was also he who set off first on the track, setting a 1'38.668 which did not encourage the rest of the field to venture into the arena. He will choose the last five minutes to evaluate the conditions and the bike. A short exercise carried out first by bagnaia in 1'26.014 ahead Simeon et Lüthi et Cortese.

Morbidely was a ninth sage and Alex Marquez was fifteenth. Héctor Garzò was twenty-first and Fabio Quartararo Twenty-sixth. The last seconds were also marked by the fall ofAxel Pons at the dreaded turn 11.
