The same three riders that lead free practice rose to the top late in P1 to finish Friday fastest 
ahead of the Moto3 Aragon Grand Prix weekend, 🎐with David Alonso leading the way.

The 🦂Gaviota Aspar rider left it late to make his move in the second session, still fourteenth with just five minutes remaining.

The CFMoto bike sprung into action, and solo on track Alonso first climbed to third before one final run narrow♛ly brought a new Moto3 record of Aragon - a 1m𓂃 57.052s best, surpassing the long-standing 2018 lap by Jorge Martin.

Jose Antonio Rueda was also going it alone for Red Bull 🐻KTM Ajo. Ahead before Alonso lowered the benchmark, the Spaniard was just 0.210s slower for second.

A late lap saw David Almansa move up from 20th to second, dropping just one place to the third best time by the chequered flag to take th꧅ird in both sessions for the Rivacold Snipers team.

Moving into the final ten minutes of the last session of the day, Collin Veijer hit the top, only to be quickly surpassed by Adrian Fernandez. The Netherlands rider immediately hit back, with that lap holding on for fourth for the Liqui Moly Intact GP Husqvarna ride♌r.

David 😼Munoz mixed his tactics, riding both on his own and in behind other bikes, resulting in the fifth best time ꧂for BOE Motorsports.

Ivan Ortola was sixth quickest for MT Helmets - MSI, just ahead of top rookie Angel Piqueras, whoღ improved massively for Leopard between sessions, moving from outside the top twenty in the morning to seventh overnight.

His teammate Adrian Fernandez also saw improvements with his best placing him eighth, close on times with Joel Kelso 𒁏who was ninth on t🅺he second BOE entry.

Luca Lunetta did enough to complete t꧒he top ten for SIC58 Squadra Corse.

The remaining provisional Q2 places went to Stefano Nepa (LevelUP - MTA) in 11th , Joel Esteban (CFMoto Gaviota Aspar) in 12th with Jacob Roulstone the best ꧅of the tech3 bikes in 13th.

Not all the riders were heading in the right direction with Daniel Holgado off to a sloꦜw start once again. Fourth in the free practice, the Red Bull KTM Tech3 rider dropped to fourteenth - just inside the provisional Q2 places, but over a second away from the lead time.

The Free Practice session in the mornဣing was particularly slow on the new surface, with Alonso on top on the shiny, dark asphalt as the first bikes to lay rubber on the newly resurfaced trac꧒k.

There were no crashes in the⭕ first session. Filippo Farioli (23rd) was the first faller of the day in any class in the second P1 session, running out onto the gravel after the run off at turn four with 17 minutes rꦏemaining.

The Aragon round sees Vincente Perez continue to fill the vacated seat at Fibre Tec Honda - MLav Racing, finishing Friday in 21st, head of regular teammate Scott Ogden in 24th. There is an additional wildcard for the weekend, with Arbi Aditama (27th) back with Honda Team Asia.
