Amidst all the excitement of Valentino Rossi's leg-breaking crash at Mugello, the second session of free practice for the Moto2 class went almost unnoticed. Despite the attention of the world being elsewhere, Sergio Gadea set the fastest time on the Tenerife Pons Kalex bike, beating out Interwetten Moriwaki's Thomas Luthi and the FIMMCO Speed Up team's Andrea Iannone.

Tight
From 5th to 31th no gap to the next rider over a tenth, average gap 0.035. Ridiculously close.
Moto 2 Qualifying
Almost the same gaps except Andrea Iannone on pole with a 1.55.598 with .26 gap over Toni Elias who has a .364 gap over Alex DeAngelis. After that it's real close for the rest of the field
