Maverick Vinales turns the tables on Aprilia team-mate and Sprint race winner Aleix Espargaro to lead a cool and overcast morning warm-up at the 2023 Catalunya MotoGP.
The Monster Yamahas of Franco Morbidelli and Fabio Quartararo were a surprise third and fourth. Quartararo switched back to the old, smaller, Yamaha fairing.
Enea Bastianini, who has a three-place grid penalty for riding slowly on the racing line in practice, fell during the ten-minute session.
Spots of rain fell but didn't develop into anything heavier.
