#FrenchGP | Vinales leading also under the rain!
Rainy conditions for MotoGP riders with Maverick VInales ahead of Marc Marquez after being fast also on dry conditions on Friday
( palabras)
Maverick Vinales seems to be really confident also under the rain at Le Mans and puts his Yamaha ahead of everyone in the third session of free practice in 1.42.498. After a positive Friday on dry conditions, the Spaniard is really fast also with the rain and he is ready for the qualifying.
Marc Marquez follows him and his pace is good on dry asphalt but on rain one too; the reigning champion ended the morning in 2nd with just two tenths of a second of gap from Vinales.

Jack Miller is a specialist of the rain and he confirms this during the FP3, ending in 3rd ahead of Alex Rins, first rider over the 1.42. The Spaniard from Suzuki should do Q1 and finding immediatly the right feeling in this conditions is crucial to stay into top 12.
Same for Johann Zarco, who wants to get a good result in home soul; rain could help him after a negative start of the season and KTM problems could be less with this conditions and the French surely does not want to lose this chance.
6th and 7th are Danilo Petrucci and Jorge Lorenzo, with the five-time World Champion being slower than one second from his teammate; the Spaniard from HRC is still in Q2 thanks to the good lap did during FP2.
Pol Espargaro and Andrea Dovizioso are behind them and both in Q2. Pol could surely have benefit from rain as long as we saw how fast he was in this conditions, especially during the last race of 2018 in Valencia in which he got the podium.
Valentino Rossi closes top 10 and has to find the right confidence as soon as possible as long as he has to do Q1 session. Avoiding another Jerez is crucial for him: starting from behind would not be ideal for him.
