It was pouring with rain during yesterday’s FP1, but today was a different story. As the sun beat down over Brno, the Moto3 grid headed out into somewhat of a ‘crash fest’.
Last year’s Brno Moto3 winner John McPhee (British Talent Team) was the first to go down, but Nicolo Bulega’s (Sky Racing Team VR46) crash was the talk of the paddock. As he entered turn ten, the bike spat him off into the air sending him flying into the gravel. He spent a lot of the session in the medical centre, but surprisingly came out on top ahead of Philipp Oettl (Südmetall Schedl GP Racing) who also suffered an off this morning and Aron Canet (Estrella Galicia 0,0).
Other crashes from Albert Arenas, Ayumu Sasaki, Andrea Migno and Niccolo Antonelli. The riders were complaining of no grip on track.
