Fenati fastest again on the final day at Losail

Fenati, Arbolino and Toba discuss Day 2
All of the lightweight class riders, except the injured Gabriel Rodrigo (Kommerling Gresini Moto3), went quicker on the third and final day of testing at the Losail International Circuit. But it was the Snipers Team duo who locked out the top two positions at the end of play, just like they have done on the previous two days. Their closest challenger was Aron Canet (Sterilgarda Max Racing Team), 0.368 splitting him from Fenati in third.
Fourth fastest was Leopard Racing’s Lorenzo Dalla Porta, the only other rider within half a second of Fenati, with Niccolo Antonelli (SIC58 Squadra Corse) completing a top five covered by 0.507 seconds.
John McPhee (Petronas Sprinta Racing) ends the test in sixth place with a best time of 2:05.899, the British rider sitting 0.131 ahead of seventh-placed Marcos Ramirez (Leopard Racing). Tatsuki Suzuki (SIC58 Squadra Corse) finishes eighth, just ahead of SKY Racing Team VR46 duo Dennis Foggia and Celestino Vietti – ninth and tenth on the times respectively for the Italians.
That’s it for Moto3™ preseason testing as all eyes now turn to FP1 on Friday in Qatar, you don’t want to miss it!
