Overview

It was Jorge Lorenzo who set the overall fastest time in the two Friday (14 August) practice sessions, with Marc Marquez close behind. The duo continue their battle from Indianapolis, where the Honda rider came out on top after a fiercely contested race.

It was a hot day at the Brno circuit with track temperatures rising as the day went on. FP2 saw the temperatures increase by 20 degrees from the morning session, which caused trouble for a lot of riders as they suffered a lack of grip.

Marquez and Rossi were among a number of riders who hit the deck, but the reigning world champion was one of the few riders, who managed to improve his time from the first session.

The Ducati has arrived with an updated GP15 for both the riders to try out, with new engines and fairings, along with their current bikes.
