2025 Hungarian MotoGP: Friday Practice as it happened

Bagnaia with an improvement on his penultimate lap of the session but only 14th on a 1:39.339.

Acosta up to second with his latest lap and within 0.5s of Marquez, but that doesn't last too long as Marquez gets into the 1:37s. 

A run-on for Marquez at turn one after setting that lap but he's dominated this morning.

Marini improves to second with his latest lap. Still 0.5s off Marquez but a good morning for the Italian.

MotoGP world feed reporting that Bagnaia and Di Giannantonio are the only riders out on the 355mm brake discs at the moment.

Quite a bit of rear chatter in braking for Zarco, it looks like. Struggling to improve on his 1:40.139 at the moment. Keeps him in front of Bagnaia for now, though, and Binder.

Almost everyone back in the pits now with 12 minutes remaining. Only Zarco still out there, down in 19th at the moment.

Crash for Morbidelli, his second of the day. This time he's gone down into 15. Looks a bit more impacted by that one but he's jogging his way back to the pits now.

Run-on for Martin at turn 12, no harm done.

Another improvement from Marquez, 1:38.122 - he now leads by 0.638s.

Three KTMs in the top-five now. Pol Espargaro second, then Acosta fourth and Bastianini fifth. Binder, in contrast, is down in 21st.

Improvement from Bezzecchi shortly after Marquez, as well. Goes third ona  1:38.781, 0.542s behind Marquez.

Marc Marquez now back to the top, 1:38.239, so that's the WorldSBK pole position record already beaten.

Acosta now to the top, 1:38.802.

Marini having a solid session as well, he's still up in P3 for now. New chassis for him this weekend.

Positive lap for Quartararo who goes sixth on the Yamaha. Terrible weekend for them in Austria but with Quartararo sixth and Miller in fourth it looks a bit better here in Hungary so far.

Improvement that time for Bezzecchi, goes up into the top-10 in P6 on a 1:39.395.

Run-on for Bezzecchi as well, turn 16 for the Italian. He's 17th at the moment.

Acosta one of a few improvers after a few laps since the red flag. He goes third, and shortly after Marc Marquez goes fastest on a 1:38.908.

Marini up to third, and Miller to fourth so that's Acosta back to fifth now.

Run-on for Miller a turn one after his P4 lap.

Franco Morbidelli is our first crasher of the weekend. He's gone down at turn one and looks okay.

Pit lane will re-open at 11:14 local time, so in around two minutes.

Another blow up for an Aprilia as Raul Fernandez has parked on the straight between turns four and five. Not an ideal start for the Noale brand.

Red flag has been thrown after that one. 30:31 on the clock.

Bike problem for Jorge Martin on the front straight. Quite a spectacular one as his RS-GP blows smoke coming out of the final corner. He's parked it in the gravel at turn one, where it's standing up on its own such is the depth of the gravel there.

Fabio Di Giannantonio leads the session at the moment on a 1:39.724 but times are scrolling, as you'd expect, early on here.

Interestingly, Pol's brother, Aleix Espargaro, was due to replace Somkiat Chantra at LCR Honda this weekend but he crashed on his push bike and, despite travelling to Balaton, was ruled out of the weekend yesterday.

Johann Zarco is once again the only LCR Honda rider on-track as a result.

It looks like a new exhaust on Pol Espargaro's KTM this morning. The KTM test rider has been drafted in this weekend to replace Maverick Vinales who continues to recover from his injuries from Sachsenring.
