168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia keeps the pressure on title leader 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin by leading Friday practice for the 2024 Solidarity Barcelona MotoGP season finale.

Bagnaia shrugged off a shock fall after the chequered flag this morning to jump to the top ahead of💞 Marco Bezzecchi and Aleix Espargaro late in the afte🌱rnoon.

Meanwhile, the KTM♓s of Brad Binder and Jack Miller were among those to miss out on the top ten and must take par𓆏t in Saturday’s Qualifying 1.

After most riders stuck with the same set of soft front and medium rear tyres for FP1, ꦺwarmer temperatures saw medium and hard fronts combined with soft or medium rears t♑his afternoon.

Before the soft-rear time attacks, VR46’s Bezzecchi was leading the timesheets on used rubber ahead of Vinales, Alex Marquez, Acosta, Martin, Bagnaia, Zarco, Bi💫nder, Morbidelli and Aleix Espargaro.

Martin - ꧒who appeared to try the biggest range of tyre options this afternoon - then went straight to the top on new soft rubber, front and rear.

Despite his speed, Martin looked agitated in the pits, 🍸frantically waving over crew chief Daniel𝐆e Romagnoli to discuss some form of issue.

Meanwh🎃ile, LCR Honda’s Johann Zarco pulled ✱out a scorching lap behind Marc Marquez to go fastest.

The final run began with Zarco, Martin, Maverick Vin♒ales, Bagnaia, Alex Marquez, Pedro Acosta, Enea Bastianini, Marc Marquez, Aleix Espargaro and Jack Miller occup🐷ying the top ten places.

Marquez, Zarco and Fabio Quartararo were queued up behi♎nd Bagnaia for their last laps before VR46 Academy colleague Bezzecchi blasted to the top on 🎉his own.

But not for long.

Bagnaia dipped 0.080s under the GP23 rider, with Martin stuck in fifth after losing a lap to a big front-end save. May’s pole qualif🐽ier and Sprint winner Espargaro claimed a late third, but seemed to feel more was possible.

Yellow🍷 flags for a late Joan Mir accidꦆent and run-off by Acosta were swiftly cleared.

Bagnaia down - after the chequered flag

World championship leader 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin got the early edge over title rival 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia with fifth place, but Bagnaia then crasꦍhed into Turn 1 after the session had e🔴nded!

Bagnaia was cruising with his elbow on the tank after a botched practice start when he seemed to be surprised by an outside pass from Maverick Vinales in the✱ braking zone and lost the front.

Vinales later shrugged a 'what did I do?' gesturꩲe when watching a rep꧑lay in the pits.

Bagnaia had spun up, yet again, during his practic𒁃e start, perhaps while trying a low front-holeshot setting. 

The good news foꦅr Bagnaia was that he trudged away unharmed.

Riding in c🌼ool but dry 14-degree air tempe🤡ratures, Nakagami - after an earlier fall - fitted new soft front and medium rear tyres to shoot 0.4s ahead of Pedro Acosta in the final minutes.

Acosta, like most riders, stuc﷽k with the same set of soft and medi💙um tyres but began the weekend on the ground.

Tech3 team-mates tangle

Red flags were waved after just six minutes when Acosta and Tech3 team🐻-mate Augusto Fernandez suffered a strange collision on the exit of Turn 5.

Fernandez attempted to go around the outside of Ac🐠osta, who was caught up behind Brad Binder.

Bu🦂t Acosta, leaning to the inside, was unaware of Fernandez’s move and the pair clashed on the exit, sending both riders down, damaging an air fence and forcing red flags.

Fortunately, both riders walked away, with Acosta still shoc𒐪ked as he spoke to his team in the pits.

Be🍸fore the red flag, VR46 stand-in Michele Pirro had been caught out in the opening minutes, also at Turn 5.

How Martin can become MotoGP champion in Saturday’s Barcelona Sprint:

• Martin wins the Sprint.
• Martin finishes 2nd and Bagnaia doesn’t win.
• Martin finishes 3rd and Bagnaia doesn’t finish better than 5th.
• Martin finishes 4th and Bagnaia doesn’t finish better than 6th.
• Martin finishes 5th and Bagnaia doesn’t finish better than 7th.
• Martin finishes 6th and Bagnaia doesn’t finish better than 8th.
• Martin finishes 7th and Bagnaia doesn’t finish better than 9th.
• Martin finishes 8th and Bagnaia is 10th or lower.

Mar🎀tin holds a 24-point lead over Bagnaia heading into🐷 this weekend’s title showdown.

That means Martin can be crowned premier-class champion for ꦐthe first time and make history as the first satellite rider to win the title in the ‘MotoGP’ era, if he wins the Saturday Sprint or scores at least two points more than Bagnaia.

While the odds are stacked in Martin’s favour, cool temperatures and the threat of rain mean there might yet be one more twist in w🃏hat defending double champion Bagnaia has called a “championship 🐬of mistakes”.

Barcelona is a last-minute replacement for the traditional Valencia finale, cancelled following deva🦄stating flooding.

MotoGP’s visiဣt to the track in May saw home star Aleix Espargaro announce his retirement plans on the Thursday then lead Friday practice, qualify on pole and win the Sprint - after a last lap mistake by Bagnaia.

Bagnaia retaliated with victory in the grand prix, where Martin finished runner-up from seventh on the grid after a c🌺rash in qualifying. Marc Marquez didn’t even reach Qualifying 2 but rode fr🌱om 14th to the podium in both races.

Gresini’s Marquez holds a 1-point lead o🎐ver Enea Bastianini, the ride꧅r he replaces at the factory Ducati team next year, in the battle for third in the world championship.

Fifth overall and top non-Ducati rider will also be settled th🔯is weekend, with rookie Pedro Acosta carrying a 3-point lead over futꦍure factory KTM team-mate Brad Binder.

Miguel Oliveira return🧸s to action for his final Trackhouse appearance after missing five rounds due to left wrist fractures in Mandalika.

Ducati test rider Michele Pirro has bꦦeen called up to ride in place of VR46’s Fabio di Giannantonio, wไho recently underwent shoulder surgery.
