The Spanish rider of Team Tuenti Movil HP 40 achieved it with a time of 1'33 ″740, a time 248 thousandths better than that set by world leader Marc Marquez, riding the Suter of the CatalunyaCaixa Repsol team.

The two Spanish riders preceded the Briton of the Marc VDS Racing Team, Scott Redding and the Swiss Randy Krummenacher, riding the Kalex of the GP Team Switzerland team. Another Swiss rider in fifth position is Thomas Luthi, rider of Team Interwetten-Paddock, riding the Suter and crashing at the end of the session without suffering any physical consequences.

First of the Italian drivers is Andrea Iannone, sixth with the Speed ​​Up of Team Speed ​​Master, while the Roman Simone Corsi with the FTR of Ioda Racing is ninth. Alex de Angelis did not take part in the warm up and, as already written yesterday, will not participate in the race due to the consequences suffered in the qualifying fall, where he suffered a laceration of the annular tendon in his left hand.
