A Czech who did not stay dry this morning on a track Misano which is not yet wet, such is the situation at the start of the San Marino Grand Prix. Jakub Kornfeil will he be able to confirm on his KTM with bitumen heated to 35° and ambient air raised to 24°? To see, but the wind has risen and the eyes scan a sky that the meteorologists' forecasts promise to be prey to the whims of the rain… This will be one of the challenges of this afternoon…
Before launching into hostilities, here is a reminder of the chronometric facts with our table:

Montella fall at turn 15 from the start of hostilities. He is the teammate of a Antonelli which fell twice this morning. For the third time today, farmhouse has to abandon his KTM on the side of the track as the first quarter of an hour comes to an end. In 1'43.357, Martin sets the new benchmark to beat.
His machine repaired, farmhouse doesn't take advantage of it for long before having to stop at turn 10. a real nightmare for the Spanish hope.
It's been a nightmare day for @jaume_masia ????

Far from these worries, bastianini whips up his Honda to sign a fine 1'43.133 which puts him at the top of the timesheet. But since the Leopard drivers ride together, it's the one behind who ends up benefiting the most, which gives us a Dallas Port in 1'42.899 ten minutes from the goal.
bastianini nevertheless takes revenge in 1'42.554. We will remind you that he has held the track record since 2017, in 1'42.147. Within the Leopard team, we are delighted to achieve a solid double for the moment. The last five minutes arrive and this is the moment chosen by Martin to insert himself between the two Hondas of the Italians.
Bezzecchi did even better by taking control of the exercise in 1'42.527. Canet closes the top 5 at Arbolino. But for 92 thousandths, Martin did better and finished this Friday at the top of the Moto3! The surprise comes from the guest Zannoni which is eighth. Norrodin fall at turn 4 to end it…
