168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia rules Friday practice for the 2024 Austrian MotoGP while Pedro Acosta is among those to miss th🧸e top ten, sending 🥃the rookie into Saturday’s Qualifying 1.

Reigning world champion Bagnaia, seeking a third Red Bull Ring victory in a row, topped the timesheets from Marc Marquez and title leader Jorge Martin as time attacks began i✱n the final 15 minutes of the hour.

Bagnaia then broke the lap record as he finished 0.281s clear of Franco⛎ Morbidelli, ♈who celebrated his newly announced VR46 Ducati deal with second place.

Team-mate an🥂d F🃏P1 pace setter Martin was third while Marquez made big steps after a quiet morning in fourth.

Brad Binder was the only KTM in the top ten, at the expense of Ac🐭osta.

After this morning’s fast accident, Acosta gave the Tech3 mechanics moไre repair work by flipping his RC16 through the gravel at Turn 9.

The rookie was up and running back to t꧑he pits before he’d even stopped sliding and returned on his spare bike for the soft-tyre shootout, but could♋n’t hold on to tenth.

That position instead went to double Silve෴rstone w♓inner Enea Bastianini. The Italian was also in danger after a late fall but held on and helds straight to Q2.

Valentino Rossi was watching trackside this afternoon but returned to the paddock when both Ma🅰rco Bezzecchi and VR46 team-mate Fabio di Giannantonio fell in quick succession. Bezzecchi later made the top ten but Diggia didn't return.

Aprilia’s Aleix Espargaro, who suffered a nightmar🐻e pair of crashes at the same Turn 2 chicane this morning, fought back to feature as high as third in the closing stages. 

Espargaro eventually edged out team-mate Maverick Vinales for seventh, behind Alex 𓃲Marqueꦑz.

KTM wild-card Pol Espargaro, third this morning, was visibly frustrated at having to park his development RC16 at the side of the track just after the halfway stage. Espargaro didn’t r♌eturn, apparently due to a pre-existing issue with his second machine.

Fellow test riders Lorenzo Savadori (Aprilia) and Stefan Bradl (Honda) are also making wild-card appearanc♈es this weekend.

After a sunny Friday, cooler temperat🦋ures and possibly rain showers are predicted for Saturday and Sunday.

MotoGP title leader 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin puts Ducati on top in opening practice for the 2024 Austrian MotoGP at Red Bull Ring, which saw red flags in the closing minutes after a fast accident for rookie 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta.

The GASGAS Tech3 rider walked away f🍬rom the 300km/h accident, which occured moments after he hit the brakes for Turn 4. The aero on Acosta's bike ༒was already damaged after a slow fall at the 'new' Turn 2 chicane, on the hard front tyre, perhaps contributing to the accident.

While Acosta's accident was by far the most dramatic, the young Spaniard certainly wasn't alone on the FP1 crash list. Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro was caught out twice at the Turn 2 chicane, while VR46's Marco Bezzecchi ཧand factory KTM's Brad Binder also slid off at low speed.

Franco Morbidelli, tipped to be confirmed as a 2025 VR4♛6 Ducati rider this weekend,𝓡 was quickest for much of the session before Pramac team-mate Martin edged 0.218s ahead.

KTM wild-card Pol Espargaro, running numerous new parts, most visibly some radical swingarm-mounted wings, used recent private testing knowledge to lead the opening minutes on his way to t✅hird place ahead of reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia.

Marc Marquez made a slow start to the weeke🌱nd but briefly jꦿumped to 8th place on his last lap before it was cancelled due to track limits, leaving the Gresini rider in 18th.

As pre🌳viously reported, the Honda riders have a revised engine ༒configuration for this weekend.

High tyre st൲res🏅s at the Sachsenring means Michelin brings a reinforced rear construction for the Red Bull Ring.
