Izan Guevara wants to say goodbye to his first season in the Moto3 World Championship with another victory. The Spanish rider is being a prophet in his land during the first day of free practice in the small category, dominating the sessions thanks to the time of the FP1. An excellent performance.
Guevara scored a 1: 42.677 on the wet track in the afternoon session, but in the morning, on dry wheels, the clock stopped at 1: 39.561. Little difference that shows that there is still a lot of room for improvement on that asphalt, and that the best times will come in FP3, as long as it doesn't rain.
Pedro Acosta starts fifth and José Antonio Rueda makes his World Cup debut
The Spaniard has already won a rather turbulent race in Austin, but now he wants a second victory that will launch his candidacy for the title by 2022. Of course, the weather forecasts have changed and now it seems that most likely, both qualifying and the race will be contested dry.
Behind Guevara has finished Darryn Binder, whom it seems that the controversy that has surrounded him since he threw Dennis Foggia in Portimao it is not affecting him. A second position that seems to give him one last chance to redeem himself and show that he really has the level to make the leap to MotoGP next season.
The already world champion, Pedro Acosta, has started the Grand Prix with a good fifth position in wet conditions. Released from the pressure for the title, it can be expected of him that he will go to sack for another victory, and also for his first pole so as not to be the first world champion who never came out first.
Worse has dealt with defeat Dennis Foggia, who in Valencia at the moment is in a sad twenty-seventh position, although with the wetter track in the afternoon he did set the best time. Sergio García, another of those who fought for the title, is currently ninth in a circuit that is going very well for him.
Third position for Andrea Migno, fourth for Filip Salac and sixth of a surprising Yuki Kunii, who finally appears in the head positions. Romano Fenati, still has options to take the third position of the general to García, he is seventh, with Jaume Masiá, also with possibilities, eighteenth.
As a nice note, A young Spanish rider, José Antonio Rueda, is making his debut in Valencia, who is replacing the still injured Gabriel Rodrigo at Gresini Racing. The ugliest crash of the day was suffered by Adrián Fernández, and he was forced to limp away through the loophole.
