Alvaro Bautista showed progress in challenging conditions, finishing fourth, his best result of the season. Alex Lowes was the top non-Ducati rider in fifth place, while Yari Montella topped the Warm Up session and some riders, such as Somkiat Chantra, had to withdraw from today’s race due to injury. Jonathan Rea is now the only Honda rider set to compete today, with Twan Smits as the wildcard entry for this weekend on the Team Apreco Yamaha.
