Marquez starts the second Misano race weekend on the front foot, but track conditions meant the times weren't fully representative
Gresini star Marc Marquez topped the opening practice session for the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, leading MotoGP championship leader Jorge Martin. Two rapid laps from Marquez right at the death of FP1 allowed the Spanish rider to assume the top spot at Misano, where he won two weeks ago, beating the Pramac Ducati of Martin by just 0.063s. Damp conditions led to a slow start to the day's proceedings, with only three riders completing timed laps in the first-thirds of the 45-minute session.
The top 10 was completed by Jack Miller on the factory KTM bike, while Miguel Oliveira , Enea Bastianini and Aleix Espargaro were the last of the riders to lap within a second of Marquez. The lead Honda bike was of Luca Marini in 17th place, the Italian finishing 1.3s down on the rider he replaced at HRC, Marquez.
