Marc Márquez was the fastest in the warm-up session for the Thai MotoGP Grand Prix, held on a wet track after rain hit Buriram this Sunday. The session provided riders with final preparations for the race and offered them some experience on a wet surface.
Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati) and Jorge Martín (Prima Pramac/Ducati) initially led the times, with four different riders taking turns at the top within a span of two minutes: Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha), Luca Marini (Repsol Honda) twice, Marco Bezzecchi (Pertamina Enduro VR46/Ducati), and Raúl Fernández (Trackhouse Racing/Aprilia).
Shortly after, Márquez (Gresini/Ducati) took the lead and held onto it for the rest of the session. The Spaniard improved his time once, clocking the best lap at 1m39.056s. Martín finished second, 0.144s behind with his final lap, while Marini took third on his Honda RC213V.
The top five were rounded out by Franco Morbidelli (Prima Pramac/Ducati) and Pedro Acosta (Red Bull GasGas Tech3/KTM), while Bagnaia ended the session in ninth.
