After a good start to the session, Pons then crashed at Turn 8 and subsequently, his Kalex-Triumph slid through the gravel, down the hill and back onto the track at the Turn 9 apex. Thankfully the oncoming riders avoided the stricken bike but with debris on the circuit, the session was briefly red-flagged with just under 25 minutes to go. Then, once the riders re-emerged, Marco Bezzecchi (SKY Racing Team VR46) crashed at Turn 3 – rider ok. No need for a red flag this time as Lowes sat 0.2 clear of the pack at the front, with Garzo and Jake Dixon (Petronas Sprinta Racing) inside the top three.
