After soft front and medium rear tyres were used in the morning, most riders switched to the opposite compounds in the afternoon, beꦑfore indulging in time attacks with new soft rubber during the final stages.

Maver🐼ick Vinales’ 2m 3.294s morning best was beaten by Jorge Martin early in the afternoon hour, with the pair - plus 2022 event winner Enea Bastianini - filling the top three as time attacks began.

Vinales showe☂d his cards first, but Martin responded with a scorching new lap record, breaking 0.6s clear of Vinales’ Aprilia𝔉 team-mate Aleix Espargaro, after Vinales had a lap scrapped due to track limits.

While only Vinales could put pressure on Mart🅠in, reigning double world champion Francesco Bagnaia, plus factory KTM riders Jack Miller and Brad Binder began the final run out of the top ten and facing Qualifying 1.

Bagnaia held his nerve to claim fourth butꦗ the KTMs, Yamahas and Hondas will all be in Qualifying 1, the four Hondas at the bottom of the timesheets.

Seven-time COTA winner Mar🦂c Marquez made a slow start to both Fr🎃iday sessions but later fired a warning shot by being amongst the quickest on used tyres in the morning and leapt from 21st to 3rd on medium-medium tyres midway through the afternoon.

The Gresini rider, who insists he will be ha♊ppy with a first Ducati podium on Sunday, then returned t✨o third on his final lap of the afternoon.

Fresh from his first MotoGP podium, rookie Pedro Acosta kicked off his Austin weekend with a strong fifth for GASGAS Tech3, as the only RC16 rider direc🌄tly into Qualifying 2.

Behind Espargaro, Franco Morbidelli im💛pressed with seventh as Bastianini, Fabio di Giannantonio and VR46 team-mate Marco Bezzecchi completed the top ten.

New rubber propels 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Maverick Vinales to the top sport in opening practice for the 2024 Americas MotoGP at a sunny COTA in Austin, Texas.

Sporting a Batman-themed helmet design, the Portimao Sprint winner was competitive throughout as he kept Pramac's world championship leader Jorge Martin atꦆ bay by 0.124s.

GASGAS rookie Pedro Acosta, fresh fro🐭m his first MotoGP podium, also featured on top on the way to third ahead of former event winner Enea Bastianini (Ducati).

Marco Bezzecchi (VR4🥂6), Brad Binder (KTM) and Franco Morbidelli (Pramac) followed with COTA king Marc Marquez (Gresini Ducati) in eighth - but don’t be fooled: Like Bastianini, Marquez didn’t fit new tyres at the end.

Younger brother and team-mate Alex Marquez was the only faller this morning, sliding off 🌃his Gresini machine in the early stages.

Jack Miller was quickest on several occa𒈔sions but was the third rider in the top ten - after Bastianini and Marquez - to stick with old rubber and was pushed to ninth.

Reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia likewise remained on the same set of soft front-medium rears throughout for 11t💎h place, with Raul Fernandez putting the home Trackhouse team in 12th.

Defending COTA race winner Alex Rins was the quickest Yamaha﷽ in 13th with Luca Marini the fastest Hon🤡da in 15th.

The top ten riders in this afternoon’ꦰs practice session will r🔥eceive direct access to Qualifying 2.

The unstable COTA subsoil means there has again been a partial resurfacing aꦚhead of this year’s MotoGP event💯, with new asphalt at turns 2, 9-11, 12 and 16-19.
