The Moto2s were not spared from the disruptions yesterday, since although they were able to ride on a dry track during their two sessions, this was reduced to a few minutes during the morning and there remained patches of humidity l 'afternoon.
This third session is currently in good conditions, the track now being cleared of patches of humidity, even if the sky is really starting to fill with big gray clouds...

Julian Simon is withdrawn after his fall yesterday.
The session actually got off to a flying start as Jonas Folger runs in 2'07.435 in less than 4 minutes. Franco Morbidelli follows suit in 2'07.422, and it's a good thing for him because a few drops of rain appear a lap later!

After around ten minutes spent in the box, all the drivers came out, still equipped with slicks, and Takaaki Nakagami immediately registered a 2'07.283.
The drivers returned for the classic tire change of the last run, but ultimately did not leave, the rain having reappeared, this time in a localized but more substantial manner.
Very localized misty rain falling at turns 3️⃣-4️⃣
