2025 Malaysian MotoGP: Pedro Acosta brushes off crash to top rain-hit Practice
KTM’s Pedro Acosta led Practice for the MotoGP Malaysian Grand Prix despite an early second crash of the day, while Pecco Bagnaia and Marco Bezzecchi missed the Q2 cut. The hour-long afternoon session was delayed by 35 minutes due to an oil spill from a support category earlier in the day. When the session began, the threat of rain lingered, with a brief shower in the final 15 minutes affecting proceedings. Acosta overcame a crash at Turn 9 to lead with a 1m57.559s, ahead of LCR Honda’s Johann Zarco and Yamaha’s Jack Miller in the top three. Ducati’s best rider was Fabio Di Giannantonio in sixth, while Alex Marquez ended Practice ninth. Pecco Bagnaia and Marco Bezzecchi face a competitive Q1 session alongside other riders.
