It was a Leopard Racing 1-2 as Danny Kent finished fastest ahead of his teammate Hiroki Ono, after an intense battle with Miguel Oliveira.

The final Free Practice session for Moto3 saw the riders take to the track in their last chance to impress before Qualifying on Saturday.

The intense on-track action showcasing just how close the Championship will be this year as less than two-tenths split the top five, with under a second separating the top 13.

There was a dramatic end to the session as riders put on fresh tyres in the last ten minutes to set a flying lap, with the lead changing hands a number of times between Miguel Oliveira and Danny Kent, before the British rider posted the fastest time of the weekend, a 2m06.413.

Ono (+0.086s) set his time after the checkered flag had been shown to knock Oliveira (+0.097s) into third. SAXOPRINT-RTG’s John Mcphee (+0.120s) sneaked into fourth, just ahead of the rookie 15 year old Fabio Quartararo (+0.152s).

Romano Fenati crashed out early on in the session but was unhurt, and Belgian Loric Cresson made his debut on track as a replacement for the injured RBA Racing Team’s Ana Carrasco.

CIP Racing Mahindra rider Remy Gardner climbed the order to 24th on Friday, 2.175s from the leading time of Kent.
