Jorge Martin topped FP1 and was competitive throughout the second practice on Friday at the Japanese MotoGP, however, the Pramac rider called day-one a ‘bit of a disaster’.
Martin has momentum on his side after claiming victory in the Indian MotoGP sprint and finishing second in the main race while title rival Francesco Bagnaia crashed out.
A difficult morning session despite topping it, Martin told MotoGP.com:"It was a strange morning. A lot of things happened inside my box. "I was fast but not fast enough to be close to Pecco and Brad. Even so, I was really competitive and had a good practice [session]. Hopefully tomorrow we can make another step."
