This morning’s free practice at the Montmelò circuit saw Jorge Lorenzo come out on top again, but this time the Spaniard’s adavantage on Dani Pedrosa and Casey Stoner was very slight.
Pedrosa in second was off only 0.
050s while Stoner, third, was off by 0.
088 compared to Lorenzo’s best lap of 1′42.
748.
Randy de Puniet climbed back up the timesheets to take fourth and was just 0.
165s from the leader.
Aleix Espargaro took fifth with a tow from Casey Stoner while the second Honda factory rider Andrea Dovizioso was sixth.
Marco Simoncelli took seventh followed by Loris Capirossi, who yesterday got blasted by Casey Stoner for not moving off the racing line.
Colin Edwards was 9th and Nicky Hayden still struggling took 10th.
Ben Spies made a massive step backwards from his 5th place yesterday, dropping to a lowly 14th.
Eleven riders in a one second gap, should bode well for a interesting qualifying session this afternoon.
