After a year away due to government spending cuts, MotoGP returns to Termas de Rio Hondo this weekend and kicked off the weekend wi🌺th the 45-minute FP1 session.

Overnight rain left the track with some damp patches on it, but th🍸e surface was good enough for slicks to be used from the off.

Having q♉ualified on pole and done the double at the season-opening Thai GP, Marc Marquez picked up wh🦂ere he left off on his factory Ducati in his first visit to Argentina since 2019.

Marquez led the session with a 1m38.937s after a late surge in the closing moments of FP1, though his margin was narroꦚwed by LCR✤ Honda’s Zarco at the chequered flag.

Top spot changed a number of times as track conditions improved, with Zarco setting the benchmark earlyﷺ on at 1m40.887s on his Honda.

Bezzecchi was next to hit the front with just under h🦩alf an hour to go on his Aprilia, as the Italian fired in a 1m40.383s before Alex Marquez sneaked ahead with a 1m40.359s on the Gresini-run GP24.

With just under 25 minutes remaining, Marc Marquez hit🍬 the front for the first time with a 1m39.991s but was soon deposed by Zarco.

Zarco raised his pace to a 1m39.794s and improved to a 1m39.397s. He would eventually find a 1m38.963s, but would have to cede 𓆉top spot to Marquez.

Marquez put in a 1m39.385s as the sesꩵsion reached the final eight minutes, and then dipped into the 1m38s barrier for the first time with a 1m38.937s in the closing six minutes.

That stood as t൲he be๊nchmark to the end of the session, with Zarco 0.026s shy at the chequered flag.

While he didn’🐷t change his medium rubber all sessioꦅn, nor did team-mate Marc Marquez.

Trackhouse Racing’s Ai Ogura led the rookie charge in 15th at a venue he admits is not a strong one for him, while team-mate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Raul Fernandez suffered a small tip-off at Turn 1 15 minute🎃s in.
