Simon Corsi rose from fourth in the first practice to the top spot in FP2 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Friday afternoon.  Championship leader Scott Redding, in a late charge, managed a second place just two-tenths off first. And Esteve Rabat put his Kalex into third just another one-tenth back. As it always in the hyper-competitive Moto2 class, less than a second separates the top 13 riders.

Unfortunately for championship contender Pol Espargaro, he wasn't within that top 13 after a heavy crash early in practice at turn 16. While he did return to FP2, he never managed to get his laps anywhere near the leaders' times and finished his Friday in 15th, more than one second back.
