It was an exciting Friday afternoon in Moto2 with many key contenders beginning to show their cards at the Michelin Grand Prix de France. It continues to be one of the most unpredictable Moto2 seasons yet, but Sergio Garcia (MT Helmets – MSI) hit back to end Friday on top, claiming a new lap record at Le Mans with a 1:35.473 in the last five minutes of the session. Alonso Lopez (Folladore SpeedUp) was second despite losing the front at the end of the session while on a fast lap, rider ok, and third went the way of his teammate Fermin Aldeguer, who found time on a last fast lap to rocket up the order.
Manuel Gonzalez (QJMOTOR Gresini Moto2) was fourth as he looks to fight for a maiden win this weekend, with Championship leader Joe Roberts (OnlyFans American Racing) completing the top five.
