Marc Marquez fastest as clouds gather in Austrian MotoGP warm-up

Marc Marquez leads Francesco Bagnaia in warm-up for the Austrian MotoGP.

While the majority of riders selected medium front and soft rear tyres for the Sprint, Michelin predicts all riders should choose medium front and rear for the grand prix… assuming it’s dry.

That put the Gresini rider - who crashed from a safe second in the Sprint - 0.162s ahead of future factory Ducati team-mate Francesco Bagnaia, winner of the Sprint and chasing his third Red Bull Ring GP victory in a row this afternoon. Franco Morbidelli was the top Pramac rider in fourth, with mediums front and rear, while team-mate, pole qualifier and joint title leader Jorge Martin was only 21st.

Espargaro completed the podium on Saturday but knows it’ll be hard to break Ducati’s podium dominance this afternoon - Desmosedicis having filled the podium for the past seven GPs in a row.
