The Leopard rider remained unchallenged, with Daniel Holgado coming closest to matching his lap, finishing the day 0.110s behind for Red Bull GasGas Tech3.

After struggling at the same trꦍack for the Misano round, Xabi Zurutuza was a surprise package in the tricky conditions in fourth, before fading in P1 to 22nd while Noah Dettwiler also made massive improvements to feature inside the top ten. A bike issue in the second session left the Swiss rider 24th.

Jacob Roulstone was the only fallerꦇ in FP, off at turn six after his rear tyre snap𒁏ped around and threw him off.
