With better conditions in the morning unlike yesterday, Nicolo Bulega was able to push his pace into record breaking territory as he went under the 1’29s mark. But he wasn’t alone in this, as five other riders also joined in.

Toprak Razgatlioglu and Andrea Locatelli were also hot on his tail in second and third respectively as both riders were within seven thousands of a second slower.

Behind them were the GYTR Yamaha duo of Dominique Aegerter and Remy Gardner, proving once again that Yamaha works super well here in the island but the same cannot be said about the six times world champion, Jonathan again languished down in 13th place and is unable to keep with his fellow Yamahas upfront.

Alvaro Bautista did however fare better, as he finished the session in eighth place.
