MotoGP: Marc Marquez irrepressible: warm-up also his, Bagnaia 3rd

Marc Marquez. Him again! In Sunday morning's warm-up, the Spanish rider once again confirmed himself as the reference. Thanks to a time of 1'29"460, #93 ruled over the competition, playing the leading role.

In a particularly hot session, with temperatures around 50 degrees Celsius, the Ducati rider trimmed 362 thousandths from his brother Alex, while Bagnaia came in 3rd, separated by 425 thousandths from his teammate.

During practice, the warm-up is the mirror of what we saw yesterday in the Sprint, with Marc dictating the pace, followed by Alex and Pecco.

Franco Morbidelli arrived 4th, called to deal with a half second gap from the top. The Pertamina VR46 rider was chased by Di Giannantonio, then by Bezzecchi's Aprilia, delayed by a good eight tenths.

Today, the rider from Viserba was seeking redemption, just like Raul Fernandez, who followed him in 7th place followed by Quartararo, along with the first of the Yamahas. Aldeguer and Miller were in the Top 10, while all the Hondas were out, starting with Zarco.

The French rider precedes Bastianini's KTM, as well as Ogura's Aprilia, who was Saturday's revelation, arriving in 4th. Acosta came in only 16th,  with a gap of one second and two tenths, preceded by Marini.
