Tech 3 KTM rider Danilo Petrucci topped a wet and slippery MotoGP warm up session ahead of this afternoon’s 22 lap race.The Italian took over top spot from Miguel Oliveira with around three minutes of the session remaining and was unmoved as the checkered flag dropped. It was in similar conditions that Petrucci took victory at Le Mans last season for Ducati. Former Pramac team-mate Jack Miller was second fastest after spending most of the session on top. Third was the factory KTM machine of Oliveira who has looked strong in all weather at the Circuit de la Sarthe so far. After a difficult qualifying yesterday, championship leader Francesco Bagnaia had a better start to race day as he finished fourth quickest.
