For the first time this Misano weekend Marc Marquez hasn’t topped the timesheets. During the 20 minute warm-up practice, today’s polesitter crashed out at the Tramonto during his last flying lap as he was trying to beat rival Jorge Lorenzo. Like a cat with 9 lives, Marquez got up uninjured as he did in FP4.
Lorenzo seemed to be in fine form this morning posting a best lap in 1’33″832 leaving Marquez almost eight tenths adrif, while Dani Pedrosa and Valentino Rossi were third and fourth respectively.
Just under the one second difference was Alvaro Bautista who finish ahead of a resurgent Cal Crutchlow. Stefan Bradl was seventh followed by the two factory Ducatis of Nicky Hayden and Andrea Dovizioso
The tenth spot went to the always impressive Aleix Espargaro who left behind him Pramac Ducati’s Andrea Iannone (11th) and Michele Pirro (12th).
Hiroshi Aoyama also crashed his BQR-FTR Kawasaki in the finale of the session.
