MotoGP set off again for its second work session of the day, on a track heated to 38°. The morning had been the prerogative of a Marc Márquez conqueror who learned, before taking back the necklace, that his brother Alex had found the neck brace after his fall in Moto2.

A MotoGP which also has its share of injuries. We know that Valentino Rossi is absent and Cal Crutchlow on borrowed time with his index finger seriously injured after a domestic accident. This morning, we also saw Ducatis in good shape and a Dovizioso among them who was the only driver in GP17 to ride with the traditional fairing. And since we're talking about kerning, we discovered Aprilia's inspiration for the first time on the kerning machine.Alex Espargaro.

In a separate incident, Miller et Sam Lowes fell at turn 2. Marc Marquez took the lead in 1'33.475. Cal Crutchlow, already weakened, made a mistake in turn 15, but apparently recovered without physical damage.

Marc Marquez made a mistake in glass 16 less than ten minutes from the goal. Forced to leave his motorcycle with the marshals, he rushed into his pit with the intention of resuming the fight with his second machine. Lorenzo, for his part, moved back to second position. The beginning of the charge of the last minutes since Pirro was familiar with the top of the timesheet in the process, a mission succeeded first by Pedrosa and Petrucci with Dovizioso in its wake. Marquez was only fourth!

This final sprint gave a hierarchy controlled by Petrucci before Vinales which was revealed in the final moments and Dovizioso who is ahead Pedrosa et Marquez. Crutchlow, Pirro, Lorenzo Iannone et Rabat complete the top 10 missed by zarco only twelfth.
