2025 Thailand MotoGP News – Friday

Aprilia looks good

Jorge Martin's absence in Thailand will be twice painful when assessing Aprilia's profits in Aprilia. Teammate Marco Bezzcchi showed a good speed on Friday, while the trackhouse runners Raul Fernandez and Rookie Ai Ogura were also in the top ten.

“We have improved in the aerodynamic parts in the character of the engine. We also worked a lot during the test for traction control. ”Said the test driver Lorenzo Savadori, who failed in Thailand for Martin. In addition, “some aero systems have changed in the bike” to help with overheating, a massive topic of previous years.

Although Martin and Fernandez lacked considerable preparations in the season, the Noale factory is confident that it was frozen this weekend for 2025 and '26 and for 2025 and 2006. “We knew that the 25 engine in terms of power supply was clearly better than 24, so we are quite confident,” said Rivola.

Bagnaia aims at the racing direction

It was a difficult opening for the season for the former Champion Pecco Bagnaia. The Italian was given a last flying practice round from a Touring Franco Morbidelli, who received a three-place network penalty for his indiscretion. Bagnaia ended day 13^TH and stands before a trip to Q1.

But what annoyed the three -time world champion was the fact that a lap time that would have created him as ninth was canceled for yellow flags. Unless there was no crash and the direction of race confirmed that they were displayed due to human errors. “You accidentally put yellow flags from curve 8 on shoot 3, nobody had crashed there. When a driver crashed, I accept it. But today no. “

Racing director Mike Webb added: “We cannot reverse a round for any driver who has seen a yellow flag. But we can apologize to the human error at Bagnaia and the Ducati Lenovo team. “

Friday MotoGP

It was Marc Marquez and Pedro Acosta who exchanged places at the top of the ranking. After a quick FP1 and Buriram test, the six-time MotoGP champion company came into the meeting in Red and has a powerful start, but it has a close competition. Acosta was not only strong, but the Honda wing was directly in the mixture, with Johann Zarco (Castrol Honda LCR) climbing on P1 with a 20 -minute lead. Elsewhere, the Honda HRC Castrol drivers Luca Marini and Joan continued their FP1 form and were third and fifth on the time strikes that were expected in the last quarter of an hour. With less than a second in which the top 15 was divided, an epic crescendo built until the first day of the 2025 season.

After all the drivers wanted to get in after a top placement and the second quarter, the pace fell in the last 15 minutes when Acosta returned to Marquez in front of Marquez, as before, at the beginning of the session. Brother Alex Marquez followed the #93 to P2 with ten minutes before the remaining clock, while Fabio di Giannantonio (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) dipped Bagnaia shortly before Francesco and let the Italian out of the most important top, but #63 stepped back and withdrew in P9.

The clocked bars tick and soon the last five minutes were on the field, all drivers still have one point to prove and save their place on Saturday morning for the second quarter. Yellow flags and slowly on the racing line, Pecco would affect both on separate occasions. First, yellow flags stopped a first load to improve its lap time. Other drivers improved in a few minutes, so that the double motor world champion fell out of the top ten. Then he met Franco Morbidelli (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) on his last flying round when round 5 in the racing line. The result? A 3-place network penalty for Morbidelli. And Bagnaias 13th place in practice left him angry for the first time since Valencia in 2023 in the first quarter.

When the two Italians had the spotlight, a variety of improvements defeated elsewhere: Alex Marquez defeated Brother Marc as both in the second quarter, in front of a fast and competitive acosta, which despite his fall is the sole KTM representative, and Morbidelli.

As for the first time in 2023 Grand Prix from 2023, Honda's strength was clear. Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP ™) was eight, but suffered on the service road after the checkered flag. The top rookie honors went to an impressive Ai Ogura and, after the third Aprilia, became the last round load on P7 in the second quarter in P9 after teammate Raul Fernandez. For the first time since Indonesia in 2023, all five manufacturers are directly from the practice in the second quarter.

As always, the Q1 will be hot, but with Pecco there will be many names that surrender to get their first big scalp of the season. Maverick Viñales (Red Bull KTM Tech 3) seems to have found pace, but Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) had problems; In both cases, both are together with Jack Miller (Pramac Yamaha MotoGP ™), who suffered a round 12 early.

On his comeback day after the injury, Di Giannantonio was ahead of Marini P15, who had no arguments in the top tten in the last few minutes. Alex Rins (Monster Energy Yamaha Motogp ™, Miguel Oliveira (Prama Pramac Yamaha Motogp ™), Enea Bastianini (Red Bull KTM Tech 3), Fermin Aldeguer (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP ™), Homee-Hero Somkiat Chantra (Idemitsu Lcr Honda) and Lorenzo Savadori (Aprilia Rennsport) all in Q1.
