Warm-up results from the Thai MotoGP at Buriram, round 17 of 20 in the 2023 world championship.
Fabio Quartararo had a strong performance in Sunday’s warm-up for the Thai MotoGP, leading the pack as riders switched to hard rear tires. Despite his confidence in his race pace, Quartararo finished 11th in the Sprint due to overtaking issues on his Yamaha. Reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia, who lost nine points to Jorge Martin on Saturday, showed his strength by being just 0.002s slower than Quartararo in warm-up. Quartararo’s teammates, Franco Morbidelli and Pol Espargaro, had surprising performances, finishing in the top four. With Bagnaia leading Martin by 18 points, the race is expected to see the use of hard rear tires for the full 26-lap distance. Unfortunately, Alex Rins will not be participating in the Thai MotoGP after undergoing further surgery.
