Pol Espargaro put 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:recent rumour♓s surrꦦounding his Honda future firmly behind him by🌜 starting 🌱;the French MotoGP weekend on top of the timesheets in Free Practice 1 at Le Mans.

Completing his first MotoGP laps since being given the shock news that Suzuki is leaving MotoGP at the e🦩nd of this season, and determined to prove the factory has made the 'wrong decision', Alex Rins put the GSX-RR fastest during the opening ten minutes.

Rins was pushed to fifth by the midway stage of the 45-minutes - when Jack Miller was quickest from home 𓂃star Fabio Quartararo - before Rins fought his way back to the front in the final five minutes.

Miller and then Quartararo swiftly retaliated, but the times continued to tumble with Rins a🐭nd then Pol Espargaro snatching P1 in the final minute, as Jerez winner Francesco Bagnaia sealed a late third.

Reigning champion ꦯQuartararo settled for fourth ahead of Aleix Espargaro, Joan Mir, Miller and Maverick V♕inales.

Marc Marquez spent the early stages behind Aleix Esp𝐆argaro's Aprilia, and later made a big save when he ran wide and lost the front over the kerb at Turn 8, on his way to 13th.

A nightmare session for KTM included two falls for Miguel Oliveira as well as accidents for factory team-mate Brad Binder and Tech3's Raul Fernandez, as the orange machines were l🎉eft outside the top 17.

Doub🌜le 2022 race winner Enea Bastianini (Gresini Ducati) and Franco&ꦯnbsp;Morbidelli (Monster Yamaha) were also caught out this morning.

Dry weather is pಌredicted for Friday and Saturday, but rain is a threat for Sunday.

Fernandez is returning🔴 to action this wee💧kend after being ruled out of the Portimao and Jerez rounds due to a right-hand injury.

Jack Miller won last year’s French Grand Prix, after a fl♐ag-to-flag race caused by a heavy⛎ rain shower. The Australian was joined on the podium by home heroes Fabio Quartararo and Johann Zarco.

Quartararo returns to Le Mans holding a 7-point title lea🔯d over Aleix Espargaro with Enea Bastianini in third (20 poin💜ts).

Jerez winner Francesco Bagnaia is 33 points adrift, in fifth.
