Improved lap times came in from Enea Bastianini, Martin and Bagnaia, as the top four, led by Marquez, were🌸 split by just one tenth.

Down in 11th place, Aleix Espargaro nearly crashed at turn eig𒐪ht as he looked to push on.

A𓃲fter showin✱g promising pace early on, home favourite Fabio Quartararo began slipping down the leaderboard.

14th, Quartararo was clear of all five other Japanese bikes who occupied the bottom five p🤡ositions with nearly half the session🎃 gone.

On course to go fastest, Bastianini again lost out𒈔 in sector four to Marquez who was making t🥂he difference in the final part of the lap.

The same then happened to Bezzecchi who was close to tw💎o tenths clear of Marquez heading into sector four, however, he lost all that time before Bastianini moved to the front of the field.

Bastianini then improved🐽 again to put a tenth between himself and Martin who moved ahead of Marquez for second spot.

After moving up to second, Acosta looked to have gone quickest before having🥀 his time deleted for track limits.

It was second time lucky for Acosta though, as the rooki💟e sensation set a time of 1:31.658s to move clear of 𝔍Bastianini by -0.179s.

Quartararo made a mistake late on at turn seven as he ran through the gravel after getting his braking wrong for the✨ left-hander.

Martin reasserted Ducati’s dominance as h𓃲e took the top of the leader⛎board with a time of 1:31.421s.

Acosta then produced a stunning save at turn six as he lost the front-end before digging his elbow into🌳 the tarmac.

Unable to replicate the GASGAS rid𝐆er, factory KTM rider Brad Binder suffered a very fast fall at the end of 🅷the session.
