Jorge Martin topped MotoGP practice Friday morning at Misano World Circuit – Marco Simoncelli, in San Marino. Riding his Prima Pramac Racing Ducati Desmosedici on Michelin control tires, the current Championship point leader turned a 1:31.707 to lead the field of 23 riders – but it was a very tightly bunched field.

The top 18 riders in the session were within one second of Martin’s lap time.

This included Marc Marquez, who was second with a 1:31.744 on his Gresini Racing Ducati, and wildcard rider Pol Espargaro, who was third with a 1:31.920 on his Red Bull KTM Factory Racing RC16.
