Nepa fastest as Alonso leaves it late after a Turn 11 crash

Stefano Nepa (LEVELUP – MTA) topped the Moto3™ times on Friday at the Sachsenring as the Italian put together a 1:25.283 to finish 0.031s ahead of Dutch TT winner Ivan Ortola (MT Helmet – MSI).

David Alonso (CFMOTO Gaviota Aspar Team) bagged P3 on Day 1 but the Colombian had to leave it late to land a competitive time following a fast crash at Turn 11. The World Championship leader will be aiming to have a less dramatic session on Saturday morning.

– Collin Veijer (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP) pocketed a P4 to signal a solid day at the office for Alonso’s chief Championship chaser.

– Daniel Holgado (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3) sits P11 heading into Saturday morning’s final Practice session, but the Spaniard is less than half a second away from Nepa’s pace.

Tune into Moto3™ Practice 2 at 08:40 local time (UTC +2) before the lightweight class go qualifying at 12:50.
