Lowes in control at the #BritishGP

Brit remains top in Moto2™ FP3

Sam Lowes (Federal Oil Gresini Moto2) remained top of the timesheets in the third practice session for the Octo Brtish Grand Prix, heading Idemitsu Honda Team Asia rider Takaaki Nakagami and Garage Plus Interwetten's Tom Luthi as the Swiss veteran gets back on track after a crash in Brno forced him to miss the Czech GP.

Reignin champion Johann Zarco (Ajo Motorsport) was fourth fastest as he looks to defend his championship lead, ahead of Czech GP winner Jonas Folger (Dynavolt Intact GP). Alex Marquez (Estrella Galicia 0,0 Marc VDS) was sixth fastest as Moto2™ got back on track on Saturday, with Forward Racing's Lorenzo Baldassari for company in P7. Axel Pons (AGR Team), Mattia Pasini (Italtrans Racing Team) and second Estrella Galicia 0,0 Marc VDS rider Franco Morbidelli completed the top ten.

Alex Rins (Paginas Amarillas HP 40) had another tough session in P23, as the Spaniard works on damage limitation in the championship after breaking his collarbone in a training crash ahead of the British GP.

Moto2™ qualifying gets underway at 15:05 local time (GMT+1).
