Rebound in Moto3! While the leader of the Championship, Jorge Martín, was leading FP1, he suffered a big high side at the end of the session and fractured his left wrist, forcing him to withdraw from the Grand Prix and thus to leave valuable points to your opponents. With only seven points ahead of Marco Bezzecchi, he should probably regain the lead of the Championship on Sunday. His other opponents, starting with Arón Canet and Fabio Di Giannantonio, will also take the opportunity to catch up.
Until then, everyone will have to adjust their test bike as best as possible in order to be ready for the race. Start of FP2 at 13:10 p.m.

If the temperature in the air has not changed since this morning and still stands at 33 degrees, that of the track has, however, risen significantly and peaks at 48 degrees. The pilots set off in this heat, and it's Fabio Di Giannantonio (Del Conca Gresini) which sets the reference time in 2'09.698, a little more than a tenth slower than the best time this morning.
After ten minutes, the Italian still leads Marco Bezzecchi (PruestlGP), Niccolo Antonelli (SIC58 Squadra Corsica), Tony Arbolino (Marinelli Snipers Team) and guest driver Filip Salac (Cuna de Campeones Czech Talent) who had an excellent start to the session. Antonelli is then the victim of a high side but fortunately gets up immediately and returns to the box.
Happy to report that @_Nicco23 walked away from this one?
