A day after the race at Jerez, the MotoGP riders are all back on track and testing. It's a busy day already with a lot of riders on track. Marc Marquez has already been out on the development bike Stefan Bradl has been using, with the carbon fiber covers on the frame. Andrea Iannone was declared fit, and tried to ride, but the pain in his ankle proved too much.
Fabio Quartararo was fastest at 12:30, two tenths ahead of his Petronas Yamaha teammate Franco Morbidelli, while Marc Marquez led a flotilla of Hondas, with Marquez third, Cal Crutchlow fourth, and Jorge Lorenzo fifth. Alex Rins was sixth quickest on the Suzuki.
Times are fast because the track is fantastic condition with lots of rubber being laid down, and warm and dry conditions.
