Pedro Acosta set the fastest time during Moto2 World Championship Free Practice Two (FP2) Friday at Ricardo Tormo Circuit, near Valencia, Spain. Red Bull KTM Ajo’s newly crowned World Champion rode the recently repaved 2.5-mile (4.0 km) course in 1:33.768, eclipsing the new All-Time Lap Record of 1:34.024 he set hours earlier in the day.

American Joe Roberts improved his standing from 21st in FP1 to eighth in FP2 with a lap of 1:34.243 on his Italtrans Racing Kalex.

Roberts’ countryman Sean Dylan Kelly (SDK) finished the session 32nd out of 32 riders with a time of 1:36.237, which was faster than the 1:36.576 he did in FP1.
