    Moto GP; Dani Pedrosa leads tight warm up session at Brno


    This morning’s MotoGP warm up at Brno was on a cold and a slightly damp track and several riders did their first lap scrubbing in their rain tires and then returned to track with their slick tires.
    Repsol Honda duo Dani Pedrosa and Marc Marquez were the two fastest riders, separated by a mere 0.003s. followed by Valentino Rossi who had his M1 loaded a little more than on the front and this allowed his to finish third, just 0.098s from Pedrosa, an showing off an even better pace than the previous day.
    Jorge Lorenzo fourth fastest rider after changing his setup once again, while today’s polesitter Cal Crutchlow was fifth and he was less than three tenths from Pedrosa.
    Stefan Bradl also changed the setup on his Honda and his lap time showed a definite improvement, and Bradley Smith had another great session and even if he was 7th he was under half a second from the top of the timesheets.
    Gresini’s Bautista who will take off in second on the grid was 8th followed by the usual Ducati duo Nicky Hayden and Andrea Dovizioso who were respectively 9th and 10th. The new engine that the Italian manufacturer brought to the Czech round, may have a softer delivery, but the laps times for the men in red are still far from the others.
    Just a reminder, today’s MotoGP race will be run one hour earlier than usual so it doesn’t coincide with the Formula 1 race.
