After finishing seconꦕd to Marc Marquez on day one, Jack Miller utterly dominated MotoGP FP3 at COTA.&nꦑbsp;

Before the action got underway there wa✃s a slight chance of rain impacting FP3, but MotoGP riders were instead g🌸reeted by a dry COTA circuit to begin qualifying day in Austin, Texas. 

During the early part of FP3, lap𒆙 times were some eight tenths away fromജ the fastest combined time of FP2 set by Marc Marquez. 

Marquez was again the early pace setter just as he was during both Friday sessions, while fellow Honda riderꦗ Takaaki Nakagami waꦓs under a tenth down in P2. 

With just under 15 minutes gone, Nakagami managed to reduce that gap as he went to the top with a 2:04.616s - six tenths ♈off of Marquez’s leading time. 

Joan Mir then split𓂃 the two Honda riders to go second which was enough to mo𓂃ve him into tenth overall. 

With half the session gone Nakagami🧜 once again went quickest, but this time it was enough to lead the way on combined times courtesy of a 2:03.739s. 

Team-mate Alex Marquez was someway off Nakagami’s pace and instead suffered a s👍low crash at turn one a few moments later. 

Miguel Oliveira soon followed Nakagami in starting his first time attack run, a run that saw him move inside the top six with P6. The Portuguese rider was eventually bumped ▨out of the top ten by team-mate Brad Binder.

Jac🌌k Miller, a firm favourite heading into qualifying, became the third different rider to go fastest in this session with ♉13 minutes left. 

Improvements also came from Monster Energy Yamaha team-mates Fabio Quarararo and Franco Morbidelli, while Alex Rins, winner the last time MotoGP race at COTA 🍷also jumped up th🦹e order for Suzuki. 

Yellow flags were brought out with five minutes remaining as Aleix Espargaro suffer🅺ed a second crash this weekend - turn 12.

At t💫he front, Marquez threatened to displace Miller late on, before the Australian set the first and only sub 2m 03s time so far this weekend, a lap that wa𝔍s a stunning six tenths quicker than Nakagami in second. Luca Marini became the third faller late on at turn two.
