Ai Ogura was fastest during Moto2 World Championship practice Friday afternoon at Mandalika International Street Circuit, in Indonesia. Riding his MT Helmets – MSI Boscoscuro on Pirelli control tires, the Japanese star lapped the 2.67-mile course in 1:33.690, cracking Aron Canet’s 2023 All-Time Lap Record of 1:33.847.
Canet was also under the old record with a time of 1:33.747 on his Fantic Racing Kalex, but that was only good enough for second-best Friday afternoon.
Elf Marc VDS Racing Team’s Tony Arbolino was third with a 1:33.853 on his Kalex.
American Joe Roberts improved from P22 in Friday morning’s practice to P10 in Friday afternoon’s session with a 1:34.277 on his OnlyFans American Racing Team Kalex.
