Dani 💦Holgado leads Friday practice at the Qatar Grand Prix with a new Moto3 lap record at Lusail, the first event for the class with Pirelli tyres.
The start of the evening session was d⛎elayed by 'technical issues', thought to be related to the trackside flag panels.
Red flags later appeared for the same reason, interrupting the session with just under 8 minutes to go and setting up a frantic finalꦛe... which ended with 🎐a shock rain shower!
The top 14 riders receive direct access ♉to⭕ Saturday's Qualifying 2.
