After seeing the factory Aprilia duo of Espargaro and Maverick Vinales move to the top of the leaderboa😼rd, Morbidelli looked set to regain top spot before a mistake in the final s🐷ector. 

Another rider that struggled throughout the opening round was Takaaki Nakagami who followed in Morbidelli’s footsteps by showing early potential aboard his LCR Hond🍌a.

T▨he Japanese rider jumped to the top of the timingsheets, with Vinales and Esparga🐈ro remaining inside the top three. 

Martin and Nakagami then exchanged top spot as high 1m 40s lap times were being set during🔥 the opening 15 minutes. ꩵ;

Showing impressive pace in what is just his second official weekend of MotoGP action, Augusto Fernandez went up to ninth place before having his lap time del🌸eted due to exceeding track limits at the fiไnal corner.

One rider who had no such issue with track l🦹imits was Marco Bezzecchi, as the podium finisher in Portimao went up to third, splitting Martin and world champion Francesco Bagnaia. 

After seeing h🌠is team𝐆mate narrowly miss out on top spot, Vinales was next to try his luck as he set a time of 1:40.559s.

Vinales then improved again, however, so did Morbidelli and Espargaro as both riders went quicker than the ex-Yamaꦕha rider. 

Matching ꧙his previous best lap, Morbidelli then had a la💙p deleted as Vinales found time in sector four to go fastest once again. 

Vinales then put the hammer down as he found nearly two tenths, while Alex Rins became the first faller of the day after losing the front-end of his RC21🐻3V at turn one. 

With his teammate sitting in second♓, although Morbidelli was the first rider to put💝 new tyres on, Fabio Quartararo was struggling as he remained a second down on Vinales with ten minutes remaining. 

With unpredictablꦯe weather in the air and a risk to affect Practice 2, riders began a mini time attack d🌱uring the final few minutes.

Out on-track alone to kick things off, Bezzecchi✱ set the first sub 1m 40s lap after fitting a new medium rear.

A stunning pair of laps from Vinales then saw him separate himself from the pack, so much so that no rider got within two 🌼tenths of his effort come the checkered flag.

One of those who was a long way behind was Quartararo, as the Yamah💝a rider missed out on the top ten.

Espargaro made it a Apr⛎ilia 1-2 with his final effort, while Bagnaia managed to remain in the top ten by the 🌄smallest of margins.
