Dovizioso leads opening practice for the Austrian MotoGP after fitting a few soft rear at the end of the session.
Marquez had been fastest before the late push on new tyres, the Honda rider again one of the few to stick with used (medium) rubber at the end of FP1.
Ducati has won all three previous races at the Red Bull Ring, since the circuit returned to the MotoGP calendar in 2016, and it is the only track on the current calendar where Marquez has not yet won.
Joan Mir has withdrawn from the event to continue his recovery from Monday’s post-race fall at the Brno test. Jorge Lorenzo is again absent after fractures to his vertebrae at Assen and replaced by HRC test and wild-card rider Bradl.
