Sergio Garcia was quickest during Moto2 World Championship Practice One Friday afternoon on the Bugatti Circuit, in Le Mans, France. Riding his MT Helmets – MSI Boscoscuro on Pirelli control tires, the Spaniard covered the 2.6-mile (4.2 km) racetrack in 1:35.473. That time was good enough to lead the field of 28 riders and break the All-Time Lap Record of 1:35.556 set by Alonso Lopez Friday morning.

Lopez was second-best in the afternoon with a 1:35.549 on his Folladore SpeedUp Boscoscuro, just ahead of his teammate Fermin Aldeguer and his 1:35.765.

Manuel Gonzalez was the top non-Boscoscuro rider with a 1:35.780 on his QJMOTOR Gresini Kalex.

American Joe Roberts, the World Championship point leader coming into the event, was fifth in Practice One with a lap of 1:35.783 on his OnlyFans American Racing Team Kalex.
