Sandro Cortese set the best time in the second free practice session of the Moto3 class of the Red Bull Indianapolis Grand Prix, the eleventh stage of the 2012 world championship, tenth for the smaller class which, like Moto2, did not race at Laguna Seca.

The world championship leader stopped the clock at a time of 1:49.307, 126 thousandths better than that set by his team-mate Danny Kent, the fastest in the first free practice session.

Seventh is Jonas Folger, making his debut with the Kalex KTM of Team Aspar. The German driver who lapped in 1:50.356 preceded his teammate Hector Faubel, the Frenchman Louis Rossi and Adrian Martin, who closes the Top Ten.
