2014 MotoGP season gets underway in Qatar

Repsol Honda’s Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa have completed the first practice session of the 2014 season.

Dani, who struggled with grip in this first session, was anyway the fastest factory rider – with the satellite teams enjoying a clear advantage after testing here two weeks ago. He finished the 45 minute session in 6th place with a time of 1’56.332 recorded on lap 13 of 16.

2013 World Champion, Marc, who climbed back aboard his RC213V for the first time in 6 weeks after breaking his leg, chose not to have any painkillers and managed an impressive 15 laps. He finished 11th for the night with a time of 1’56.682 on lap 13.

The riders will be back on track tomorrow evening at 18h00 local time.
