2018 Brno Moto2 FP2 Result: Schrotter Makes The Double

In a familiar storyline from earlier today, Marcel Schrotter set camp at the top of the timesheets on lap four and once again followed through to ensure first place at the checkered flag. The German had two tenths of a second in hand over the world championship leader throughout the session, with Mattia Pasini a further four hundredths of a second back in third position.

Alex Marquez returned from holiday at the sharp end to finish Friday fourth, about three tenths off the leader’s best time. Fabio Quartararo found some speed to match the rumours following him and climbed into fifth late in the session. Jorge Navarro followed only seven thousandths of a second in tow and only just about sneaking ahead of Romano Fenati.

Joan Mir recovered significantly from a low key FP1 to finish eighth the second time around, with compatriots Lorenzo Baldassarri and Simone Corsi the final men within half a second of Schrotter. Luca Marini, Miguel Oliveira and Andrea Locatelli only just missed out on the top ten, with the top 20 men within a second of the leader. These small margins also kept the likes of Sam Lowes and Xavi Vierge away from the top positions, while latest victor Brad Binder was over a second off in 21st spot.
