Razgatlioglu finished the session🐎 with a time of 1m 36.920s - five tenths clear of the six-time world champion.
Razgatlioglu and Redding dominated much of the session as th🐓ey exchanged top spot until the fꦆinal minutes.
Michael Van Der Mark and Lucas Mahias both had technical iss𒆙ues and remained in pit lane during the 🌃opening stages.
Van Der Mark had two early attempts at leaving pit lane but was unable to do so, as his BMW M 1000 RR had to be wheeled back into the garage. When the Dutchman did eventually make his way out onto the Portuguese circuit♔, the issue persisted for Van Der Mark as he hit his handlebars in frustration and returned to the garage a lap later.
Van Der Mark was able to set a time late on but c🌼ould 🔜only manage 16th place.
Alvaro Bautista and Honda’s crashing issues continued, as the Spaniard fell twice during FP1. The first fall came afte⛄r three laps at turn three, while the second was at turn 13 lateౠ on.
