The light shower that fell this morning is only a distant memory and the two strong men of the tests, Johann Zarco and Takaaki Nakagami, will be able to make their final adjustments under an overcast sky but with more than mild temperatures of 23° in air and 25 on the ground.
Quickly, the French pilot moved to the forefront while, Hafiz Syahrin , qualified 10e, fall without gravity. Behind the French driver, we find Folger, Luthi, Marquez, Axel Pons, Schrotter, Baldassarri and Rins, while we have to wait until the last 5 minutes to see Nakagami appear only a tenth behind the title holder.
The final race will see Cortese enter the Top 5, and various drivers significantly improve their times, starting with Folger, Rins and Baldassarri, it will be the arrival of Takaaki Nakagami at the top of the ranking at the last second which will put a little of pepper in the preparation that we will taste this morning at 11 o'clock.
