David Alonso was fastest during Moto3 World Championship practice Friday morning at Silverstone Circuit, in England. Riding his CFMOTO Valresa Aspar Team machine on Pirelli control tires, the young Colombian lapped the 3.7-mile (5.9 km) course in 2:09.600 to lead the field of 25 riders. That lap time also smashed Romano Fenati’s 2021 All-Time Lap Record of 2:10.619 by more than one second.
