Fabio Quartararo is the fastest in FP3 Catalunya MotoGP, Valentino Rossi is still safe
GridOto.com – The Petronas Yamaha team rider, Fabio Quartararo, managed to set the fastest time in the 2020 session of Catalunya MotoGP FP3.
The temperature in the FP3 session was quite cold, where the track was 13 degrees Celsius while the track was 21 degrees Celsius.
Despite the fact that last year when it was held in the middle of the year, the temperature was 24 degrees centigrade and the track 34 degrees centigrade in the FP3 session.
That is why this is a big concern for the riders who will press the lap time because the track is complicated, the character is different from last year.

With a temperature like this, the tire grip is not too optimal and the front tire is prone to losing grip when cornering, making the chance of a crash quite large.
Soft tires are the top choice for many riders in this session to catch up with the top 10 drivers automatically entering Q2.
There were several crashes, one of which was Cal Crutchlow, who actually forced him to come forward with an injured ankle, and he was rushed to the medical center for treatment.
Although it was difficult, little by little the runners began to seem insistent and set good times.
The fight for first place in the last 5 minutes was quite close until finally Fabio Quartararo managed to set the best time in this session, beating Maverick Vinales.
