Rain Sets the Pace as Misano MotoGP Begins

There was little fun to be had today by the MotoGP riders in the first two practice sessions for Sunday’s 'Grand Prix di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini' at the Misano World Circuit.

Persistent rain throughout the day meant riders had their wet riding skills tested to the max on the treacherously slippery track.
