Moto3: A 1:24.767, a new Moto3 lap record around the Sachsenring, gave David Muñoz top spot as the Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP team enjoy a great start to their home Grand Prix in Germany.
David Almansa (Leopard Racing) heads into Saturday in P2, 0.360s away from Muñoz’s blistering time, as FP1 table topper Scott Ogden (CIP Green Power) sails into qualifying day as the third fastest rider.
After a mechanical issue disrupted Maximo Quiles’ morning, but the CFMOTO Gaviota Aspar Team enjoyed a better afternoon Practice stint to claim an automatic Q2 spot for the first time since Silverstone. Jacob Roulstone (Red Bull KTM Tech3) grabbed a solid top five to sit less than half a second behind Muñoz, with last year’s podium finisher, Taiyo Furusato (Honda Team Asia), sixth best.
Alvaro Carpe (Red Bull KTM Ajo) left it late to jump into the top 14, but that’s exactly what he did on his penultimate lap, and his World Championship-leading teammate Jose Antonio Rueda is safely into the pole position shootout too.
Dutch GP podium finisher Valentin Perrone (Red Bull KTM Tech3) is one name in the Q1 battle, as we wait and see what the weather will bring on Saturday.
