Suisse rider Dominique Aegerter has topped the third Moto2 free practice session with a time of 1:24.673, which was over half a second quicker than yesterday's benchmark set by Mika Kallio. Kallio ended up in second place a mere seven hundredths behind Aegerter while Jordi Torres rounded out the top three a further five tenths back.
Simone Corsi continued his strong Friday showing to set the fourth fastest lap putting him ahead of local favourite Sandro Cortese who put in a late charge to sneak into the top five. Championship leader Tito Rabat cut a frustrated figure throughout the session and had to settle for sixth place, he would be looking for drastic improvement during the afternoon's qualifying session.
