The MotoGP™ field had one last opportunity to prepare on race day at the Gran Premio Red Bull di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini, with Franco Morbidelli (Prima Pramac Racing) claiming top honours in the 10-minute session. The Italian clocked a strong 1:31.687 after an impressive run – topping the session on his final lap. Meanwhile, Marc Marquez (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) had an eventful morning, suffering from early technical issues - pulling off the circuit at Turn 8.

It was tight at the top with Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) securing third spot, a mere 0.118 adrift from top honours.
