Overview
- Marco Bezzecchi recorded the fastest lap in Friday afternoon practice with a 1:30.144, narrowly beating Marc Marquez by 0.103 seconds and topping the combined timesheets.
- Marc Marquez had led the morning Free Practice 1 with a 1:31.468, leaving the day split between his earlier pace and Bezzecchi's late-session push.
- Bezzecchi, both Marquez brothers, Fabio Di Giannantonio, Franco Morbidelli, Pedro Acosta, Luca Marini, Johann Zarco, Pol Espargaro and Jorge Martin secured direct entry to Q2, a track position that will ease Saturday qualifying and the 13-lap sprint.
- Pol Espargaro reached Q2 as a substitute rider for Tech3, an unexpected result that gives the team a strong starting position for the weekend.
- Senna Agius set a new Moto2 Misano benchmark at 1:34.142 and David Almansa led dry Moto3 practice at 1:40.767 while Ai Ogura failed his medical and will miss Misano, leaving Trackhouse to run only Raul Fernandez.
