Alex Marquez led a Gresini 1-2 in opening practice for the MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix, though he was the only ride to run fresh soft tyres for a time attack.
Two weeks on from a double disaster for Gresini Ducati at the Americas GP when both Alex and Marc Marquez suffered crashes, the brothers led the 45-minute FP1 at Jerez on Friday morning. Eight-time world champion Marc Marquez led for much of the session, but ended up 0.507 seconds adrift of his team-mate Alex Marquez after he fitted fresh soft tyres to produce a 1m36.630s at the end of FP1.
Tech3’s Augusto Fernandez in 20th was the only other faller in FP1. Aprilia wildcard Lorenzo Savadori was 23rd on the RS-GP lab bike, while Honda’s additional entry Stefan Bradl was a place behind on an RC213V with various revisions headlined by a radical rear wing.
