A set of fresh soft tyres propel Franco Morbidelli to the top of final practice 🌃for the 2025 seas🔥on opening Thai MotoGP at Buriram.
However, the pace of Marc Marquez on very old soft 🙈rubber underlined his favourite status this weekend, although team-mate Francesco Bagnaia was only two tenths slower on used hard front and soft rear rubber.
Like Morbi⛦delli, rookie Fermin Aldeguer made a late change to new rub♎ber to take fourth.
Qualifying 1 will now begin, where those left outside the top ten on Friday, including Bagღnaia, will fight for the last two places in Qualiꦯfying 2.
Morbidelli and Somkiat Chantra each have a t꧃hree-place grid penalty to serve in Sunday's race, for obstructing Bagnaia and Alex Marquez respectively at the end of Fri🔜day practice.
Reigning world champi𒁏on Jorge Martin remains absen🍨t after suffering further hand injuries in training earlier this week and is replaced by Aprilia test rider Lorenzo Savadori.
But Fabio di Giannantonio - also injured on day one of the S🧸epang test - is back for VR46.
Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Ross🔯i come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
