MotoGP: Bezzecchi tops FP2, Marquez involved in massive crash
VR46 Ducati rider Marco Bezzecchi topped a twice red-flagged MotoGP FP2 for the German Grand Prix.
Bezzecchi led the way with a 1m20.271s after snatching the top spot by 0.040 seconds on his final lap.
The session was twice hit by red flags, with the latter coming after Marc Marquez lost the front end of his horribly handling Honda into Turn 1 and wiped out Pramac Ducati’s Zarco as the Frenchman exited the pitlane.
The front end of Zarco’s bike was ripped clean off as Marquez’s bike narrowly avoided hitting him on the body.
Both walked away unscathed.
