168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio di Giannantonio receives a welcome boost by leading a soaking-wet Sa꧅turday practice for the 2023 British MotoGP at Silverstone which saw falls for the likes of Augusto Fernandez, Miguel Oliveira and Iker Lecuona.
Most of the fallers were caught out by the rear tyre sliding⛦ out, rather than the front. The rain is expected to continue for the remainder of the day.
Qualifying 1 for those outside the top ten on Friday afternoon, including di Giannantonio, Fabio Q🃏uartararo and Marc Marquez, will now get underway.
MotoGP returns from its summer break with reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia leading the standings by 35-points over Jorge Martin (Pramac) and Marco Bezzecchi (VR46) one point further back to complete an all-Ducati top three.
A revised practice format from this weekend means only Friday’s second session will be used to determine the top ten riders receiving direct access to Qualifying 2. Opening practice now becomes a ‘free’ session, like FP3.
After being tested by teams in the opening eight rounds, punishments for breaching MotoGP’s new real-time Tyre Pressure Monitoring System will be implemented from Silverstone.
For now, post-race punishments will only be given if tyre pressure falls below the minimum specified by Michelin for at least 50% of a Sunday race distance and 30% of a Sprint race, and apply as follows:
· 1st offense: Warning
· 2nd offense: 3-second time penalty
· 3rd offense: 6-second time penalty
· 4th offense: 12-second time penalty
Pol Espargaro (GASGAS Tech3), plus Marc Marquez and Joan Mir (Repsol Honda) have used the summer break to recover from injuries and return to action this weekend - Espargaro for the first time since the Portimao season opener.
However, newly announced 2024 Yamaha rider Alex Rins remains absent due to his Mugello leg fractures and is replaced at LCR Honda by WorldSBK rider Iker Lecuona.
There have been eight different winners in the last eight races at Silverstone: Jorge Lorenzo (2013, Yamaha), Marc Marquez (2014, Honda), Valentino Rossi (2015, Yamaha), Maverick Vinales (2016, Yamaha), Andrea Dovizioso (2017, Ducati), Alex Rins (2019, Suzuki), Fabio Quartararo (2021, Yamaha) and Francesco Bagnaia (2022, Ducati).
Weather forecasts warn of pote♕ntial showers throughout the weekend, especially on Saturday.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi leads an all-Ducati top four during opening practice for𝐆 the 2023 British MotoGP at a dry but over𝓡cast and chilly Silverstone.
VR46's title contender Bezzecchi set the pace for much of the 45 minutes, with Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro and Mooney team-mate Luca Mariniꩲ completing the top three during the middle stages.
Bezzecchi was then pushed down the order by the appea꧒rance of some new medium rear tyres in the closing stages, but Bezzecchi returned the #72 to the head of the timesheets by just 0.036♑s over Marini on his final lap.
Pramac Ducati team-mates Jorge Martin and Johann Zarco followed with Jack Miller getting his KTM spectacularly sideways unꦗder braking on his way to best 💖of the rest in fifth.
Reigning world champion Fra𒁏ncesco Bagnaia moved toꦉ twelfth on his penultimate lap, then was frustrated to run wide.
In a change to the previous practice format, the Friday morning session has become a 'free practice' with only this afternoon's second practice decided the top ten riders with direct ac🔯cess to Qualifying 2.
Competing in his first session since confirmation he will be replaced at M𒈔onster Yamaha by Alex Rins next season, Franco Morbidelli was caught out by a cold rear tyre and flicked from his M1 on an out lap with 15mins to go.
The Italian looked 🦄to have some🅠 aero fitted at the time and team-mate Fabio Quartararo then duly emerged with bigger wings fitted, which would be their one available in-season aero update. Morbidelli returned to claim seventh and top Yamaha, with Quartararo tenth.
LCR Honda's Takaaki Nakagami also has some new aero this weekend, a wide 'ground effect' style design of the type first us💦ed by Aprilia. Meanwhile, factory Aprilia riders Espargaro and Maverick Vinales had a revised update to their lower fairings.
The Repsol Honda team ofဣ꧒ Marc Marquez and Joan Mir appeared to use HRC chassis this morning, while LCR riders Nakagami and stand-in Iker Lecuona ran the Kalex.
Marquez was the top RC213V rider, in 15th.
Taking part in his first MotoGP session since Portimao, the reco♋vering𒁏 Pol Espargaro was 22nd and last for GASGAS Tech3, 3.5s from Bezzecchi.
With the pits, paddock and starting grid being moved to the new Wing this 💮year, a special practice start period was held after the session, which saw a fall for Enea Bastianini.

Peter has been in t💞he paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story ܫand Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
