Qatar GP | Marquez tops FP3 as Lorenzo crashes and did not take part in the session
Not any chance for MotoGP riders to improve their lap times due to tricky conditions; Marquez is still the fastest guy despite an early crash, while his teammate Jorge Lorenzo was victim of an highside which prevented him from FP3
( palabras)
Marc Marquez dominates FP3 session despite a crash during his first lap. The World Champion ended the morning with 1.54.677, being the fastest guy also in this session.
As happened for Moto3 and Moto2, also MotoGP riders were not able to improve their lap times in order to get direct access to Q2; Valentino Rossi, Pol Espargaro and Francesco Bagnaia tried everything they could till the end but track's condition prevented them from improving their position.
By the way, Bagnaia was really fast in FP3 and ended just behind Marquez, with a gap of just 0.063s, followed by Pol Espargaro, really close to the Ducati Pramac guy.
Valentino Rossi ended in 4th but it was not enough to avoid Q1; the Italian is the first rider today over the 1.54 but seems to have found his confidence back.
Nakagami, Rins and Morbidelli are 5th, 6th and 7th, ahead of Maverick Viñales and Johann Zarco.
FP3's top ten is closed by Miguel Oliveira.
Zero chances for Jorge Lorenzo to get even a lap time, as he crashed out during his first lap due to an highside; the 5-time World Champion ended immediatly his session and checked his condition at the Medical centre.
