Second practice got off to a disastrous start ♈for Enea Bastianini as a mechanical issue led to smoke comingไ from the rear of his GP24. 

It was th🥂en the turn of Marco Bezzecchi to run into issues as his GP23 also had smoke coming from it in what appeared to be an oil problem.

Moments after going second, Miguel Oliveira nearly came unstuck at turn one a♍s he suffered a huge front-end wobble. 

Like FP1, Aleix Espargaro was the first rider to dip🅠 into the 1m 59s barrier, while Takaaki Nakagami became the first faller ofꦫ the session. 

Jorge Martin then made his mꦚark as he went close to four tenths clear of Espargaro, before Fabio Di Giannantonio close to within +0.211s of the Spaniard.

Then it was the turn of reigning world champion Francesco Bagnaia 𝓰to make a statement as he went fastest by over three tenths from Maverick Vinales.&nbs🌺p;

But Bagnaia was quickly beaten by Bastianini, who put his early gremlins behღind him to set a time of 1:59.026s.

Although it wa🐈sn't enough to take over top spot, Vinales was setting very competitive lap times and showed that he had the pace to trouble Bastianini and Bagnaia. 

One of the first riders to use a soft rear ܫtyre, Pedro Acosta moved up into the top five positions as a result. 

Pushing on with a new hard front tyre, Martin was delivering very good pace as he went second despite running a used medi🍸um rear. 

Then came a sizz𒈔ling lap time from Vinales as he smashed the fastest time with a mid 1m 58s effort. 

Martin then joined Vinales in the 1🧔m 58s, however, he couldn't trouble the Aprilia rider.

Playing games in pit lane, Marc Marquez was waiting for Martin at the start of his next sജtint, but had to settle for Espargaro💞 as company because Martin held back. 

After finally latching on𒁏to the rear of Martin, Marquez jumped up the order but was on♚ly seventh thanks to his latest improvement. 

Bagnaia🌸 then found two tenths late on to go top but Martin and Espargaro both had an answer as they broke into the 1m 57s barrier.
