Johann Zarco set the early pace in MotoGP’s Valencia title decider, leading a Ducati 1-2-3-4 in first practice.
Johann Zarco, riding for the Pramac Ducati team, set the fastest time in the opening practice session of the final round of MotoGP in Valencia. He overtook Fabio Di Giannantonio at the chequered flag with the help of a tow from his teammate, Jorge Martin, who finished in third place. Marco Bezzecchi, a rider for VR46 Ducati, completed the top four, all of which were Ducati bikes. Maverick Vinales was the highest-placed Aprilia rider in fifth, followed closely by Fabio Quartararo as the top Yamaha representative, Marc Marquez as the top Honda representative, and KTM rider Augusto Fernandez. Pecco Bagnaia, the championship leader, finished 13th, but his previous successes after slow starts give little cause for concern.
