Marquez
is
back
Marquez’
sixth
on
his
return
to
MotoGP
action
was
an
interesting
one
with
the
Repsol
Honda
rider
getting
off
the
ground
with
a
very
solid
performance
at
a
venue
which
is
close
to
his
heart.
For
the
records,
the
29-year-old
has
won
seven
out
of
eight
times
he
has
raced
in
COTA.
Maverick
Vinales
ended
Day
1
–
P7
for
Top
Gun
while
Joan
Mir,
after
briefly
sitting
P2,
is
currently
heading
into
Q2
in
P8
ahead
of
Francesco
Bagnaia
and
Jorge
Martin
(Pramac
Racing)
–
the
two
GP22
riders
rounding
out
that
all-important
top
10.
Lots
of
work
to
do
That
means
the
latest
GP
winner
Espargaro
has
work
to
do
in
FP3
if
he
is
to
grab
an
automatic
place
in
Q2
in
Austin,
with
the
Spaniard
missing
out
by
a
slender
0.015s.
Pol
Espargaro
(Repsol
Honda
Team)
and
Brad
Binder
(Red
Bull
KTM
Factory
Racing)
–
the
leading
KTM
on
a
tough
day
for
the
factory
–
are
the
only
other
riders
within
a
second
of
Zarco’s
scintillating
time,
down
in
P12
and
P13.
Flurry
of
riders
Miller
had
sat
P1
after
a
flurry
of
riders
set
their
personal
best
times
in
the
early
stages
of
the
session,
including
Qatar
GP
winner
Enea
Bastianini
(Gresini
Racing
MotoGP),
Vinales
(Aprilia
Racing)
and
Bagnaia
(Ducati
Lenovo
Team).
Opening
night
winner
Bastianini
had
a
good
day
at
the
office
to
finish
P4,
the
Italian
was
0.3sec
away
from
Zarco’s
pace.
Fascinating
watch
FP3
at
COTA
will
be
a
fascinating
watch.
With
no
rain
forecast,
conditions
should
allow
for
some
time
improvements
to
be
made.
The
qualifying
session
of
the
Americas
GP,
the
historic
500th
Grand
Prix
in
motorcycle
racing,
begins
from
2.10pm
local
time
(12.40am
IST,
Sunday,
April
11).
