PRAY 10:50 – So Yamaha is in great shape at Misano at the end of the first free practice session. Fabio Quartararo confirmed to be very fast on the fastest lap, now it remains to be understood how many steps forward he may have taken in the race pace. As for Morbidelli, this second part confirms the form shown in Misano’s first stage and represents Franco’s ideal candidacy for an encore that would be splendid.
Behind the Petronas riders, the KTM is revisited with pride, with Pol Espargarò and Miguel Oliveira who have squeezed Joan Mir, 4th and interspersed by the two Austrian motorcycles in a virtual vice. Behind them, a still excellent Taka Nakagami, increasingly Honda’s best man in this unfortunate season for HRC.
Seventh time for Andrea Dovizioso, best Ducati rider in the classification ahead of Johann Zarco, who after having suffered the Bagnaia blow on Sunday, wants to give everything to play the remaining chances of joining the Factory Ducati team in 2021 Ninth time for Aleix Espargarò, who gives Aprilia air in the top ten, while Bagnaia finished behind him, effective but still not at the levels expressed in the first weekend of Misano.
Just outside the top ten closed Danilo Petrucci, who beat Alex Márquez and Maverick Vinales. Yamaha’s Spanish was less effective than expected in this first session, as was Valentino Rossi, today only 17 and more than a second of the times of the best. Valentino did not attempt the time trial at the end of the session, perhaps aware that he could easily improve his time during the other free practice sessions.

PRAY 10:29 – Alex Rins fell while braking the Quercia. It has not started very well this weekend for the Suzuki rider.
PRAY 10:24 – Paolo Ciabatti talks to Sky’s microphones: “I heard what Rubén Xaus said, perhaps it created confusion. What is certain is that the Avintia team has an agreement with Ducati for 2021. What will happen to the team for Marini depends on them and Rabat. another rider, there are not many doubts as far as I am concerned. We want to announce Bastianini shortly. There is a bit of excitement now, it is true that we are talking about Marini because in our opinion he deserves to go to MotoGP in 2021, but it is true that the contract between Rabat and Romero di Avintia is something that they must resolve between them. In Barcelona in any case we will announce the official team and also the Pramac Team ”.
PRAY 10:22 – Bagnaia improves and rises to third position. Quartararo also improves and harpoons the sixth position.
PRAY 10:20 – Meanwhile, Pol Espargarò regains the lead of the classification, advancing towards Morbidelli’s classification. Now Nakagami is third ahead of Bagnaia, who appears for the first time in the noble areas of the ranking. At the moment Rossi and Dovizioso are still quite behind and are in 13th and 14th position.
PRAY 10:17 – Great risk for Alex Rins, who loses the back of his Suzuki risking being the victim of a violent high side. Luckily he managed to avoid falling.
PRAY 10:15 – Alex Márquez is finally taking excellent steps forward, who was faster than he was able to do in qualifying last weekend.
PRAY 10:12 – Meanwhile, the standings have changed a lot, with Franco Morbidelli now leading the dance on the floor. Here is the situation right now. Morbidelli has fitted the new carbon swingarm on both bikes.
PRAY 10:07 – Andrea Iannone to Sky microphones mention this period: “It was exciting to get into the paddock. I’m fine, I’m training a lot and I’m feeling fit. I’m here to support the guys in the pits, I know everyone will do their best. I can’t talk about the process, it’s a What followed the lawyer. From a human point of view, I have to say that for a month I have been better, I have lived better. I can think less about this, I am getting over it. As soon as possible Aprilia awaits me and gives me great pleasure. This is my life and I’m not forgetting it, I want to come back here. This is an unpredictable world championship, difficult to predict. I’m glad to see KTM up front because last year they played it with us, so it means it can be done. It’s good to see Rossi competitive, it’s good to see Pecco so fast. There is a show, I would have liked to be on the track with them. Viñales is a very strong driver, but I don’t know why he has these very important ups and downs five and then in the race sometimes less. Very fast in tests and then I always gave ahead in the race. I don’t know why, I don’t think I’m a person who suffers from the pressure of the race. It is true that sometimes the state of the track is different in the race. Quartararo also feels a bit of pressure, he is very young. In 2019 he had an incredible world championship and this year starting without Márquez on the track is a problem, because. What do I miss the most of all? The motorcycle. The frustrating thing is that I can’t even run on a normal track, it’s the worst thing you can do to a driver. I’m strong, I don’t give up and I’m sure I’ll be back on the bike soon. ”
PRAY 10:05 – In the Yamaha pits, the M1s are fitted with the decidedly bulky new exhaust that debuted in testing on Tuesday.

PRAY 10:00 – The classification takes shape and Pol Espargarò immediately goes to the pace of 1’32.5, an incredible pace already reached on the third step of the finish line. The KTM Spaniard certainly has the ability to find the limit very quickly. Behind him Morbidelli and Mir.
PRAY 9:57 – Andrea Iannone is also present in the Aprilia pits, awaiting the CAS ruling scheduled for October 15. Noale’s manufacturer hopes to see him again soon at the RS-GP.
PRAY 9:55 – FP1 starts in Misano, Quartararo among the first to enter the track.
PRA 9:53 – Rubén Xaus comments on the rumors that Marini is approaching the Avintia team for 2021: “Luca Marini is doing very well, he is showing that he deserves a place in MotoGP. We are very happy with what we are doing as a team, Johann is having an incredible season and the fight with Bagnaia is beautiful. Today Valentino spoke highly of We and I thank him. Today we have a contract with Rabat, but things change fast. Without a doubt we will have an Italian in the team in 2021, it could be Bastianini “.
PRAY 9:51 – Franco Morbidelli seeks concentration in the pits. The Petronas Team rider unlocked last Sunday by winning for the first time in MotoGP, and obviously now he really wants to repeat himself.
PRAY 9:50 – Hello and welcome to our LIVE chronicle of the FP1 MotoGP in Misano. With just a few minutes to go until the green light in the pitlane, the drivers are ready to hit the track.
Misano is ready to host stage two after the VR46 Riders Academy guys nearly grabbed the Moto2 and MotoGP podium in stage one. Franco Morbidelli fulfilled his dream of winning a race and did well at Misano, the track used by the Academy boys for their training. Morbido dominated, placing an equally magnificent Pecco Bagnaia. Both have all the necessary reasons to repeat themselves, because the Yamaha rider has strongly relaunched his appointments in the world rankings, while Pecco sees the signing with Ducati ever closer to being Miller’s partner in the Factory team in 2021.
For two young Italians who dream of repeating themselves, there are two others who rightly define themselves as veterans and who dream of getting on the podium at Misano. We are obviously talking about Valentino Rossi and Andrea Dovizioso. Rossi missed the podium on Sunday’s last lap, while Dovizioso only found in Tuesday’s tests the key to the problem that should allow him to experience a weekend as the protagonist.
Then there are two other big disappointments after the first stage of Misano who are looking for the necessary confirmations in this second race weekend in Italy to stay in the fight for the title. Fabio Quartararo crashed on Sunday, losing its world championship lead while Maverick Viñales After being a great protagonist in each of the free practice and qualifying sessions, he sensationally missed the podium appointment in the race. They both have a great desire to make up for it, so we can expect an even tighter Grand Prix than the one we experienced on Sunday.
The first free practice session will begin at 9:55 on the Misano track, as our LIVE report.
