M.isano Adriatico – Sole, blue sky, ideal temperature: as regards the weather, FP1 were optimal. And it went strong, with Fabio Quartararo carrying his Yamaha before all in 1’32 “313, 0” 234 faster than Jack Miller and 0 ”380 of Michele Pirrothe Ducati test driver.
Michele was the only one in the final to go the soft new rear, but, in truth, he had also gone fast with the average. Another confirmation of Ducati’s great competitiveness, another confirmation of speed of the new father Pirro, rightfully super happy a nice session. “My wife told me to stay up frontto make me frame and so let Geneva see me”Joked to Sky’s microphones, Michele, who was in front of everyone until about fifteen minutes from the end.
Quartararo is confirmed, Bagnaia loses three positions
P.oi, the rivals have to push harder, but only started two have managed to keep up with him, with Fabio Quartararo who confirms himself phenomenal and very fast when he can make his Yamaha race around corners with the road clear ahead.
Fabio made 3 final passes to a crazy pace: is in great shape. As is Jack Miller, who continues to be effective and constant, precisely that constancy that he has lacked in recent years at Ducati: also for this reason his contract has not been renewed.
Good sixth place for Francesco Bagnaiaone who always takes FP1 with due attention, while Enea Bastianini is seventh, who must metabolize the passage of his technical boss (also confirmed by Paolo Ciabatti) Alberto Giribuola in KTM.
As for Bagnaia, on the other hand, at the end of the session there was a dangerous inattention: Pecco was convinced he had taken the flag and therefore proceeded slowly on the trajectory, but, in reality, the session was still alive. Thus, Alex Marquez was pulling and dangerously touched Bagnaia, who immediately apologized when he understood what had happened: the episode, however, was investigated and Bagnaia was penalized by three positions on the starting grid.
Fast Aprilia
D.after the Austrian difficulties, Aprilia is back competitive at Misanowith Aleix Espargarò fourth and Maverick Vinales fifth: Vinales has always been in the top positions, while Espargaro has recovered in the final.
For both, in any case, a good session. Always inside difficulty Honda and KTM: today Marc marquez should test a road bike again on Wednesday, this time the 1000, to be present at the tests and next.
