Austin – Andrea Dovizioso membuat waktu tercepat latihan pembuka seri kedua MotoGP 2015 di Circuit of The Americas (CoTA), Austin, Texas yang diguyur hujan.
Buruknya kondisi trek akibat hujan, sesi latihan pertama di hari Jumat (10/4) ini sempat ditunda sekitar 50 menit. Ditambah lagi kibaran bendera merah gara-gara seekor anjing melintas ke dalam trek.
Juara dunia dua kali, Marquez sempat jadi yang terkencang menjelang dua menit sesi berakhir dengan waktu 2 menit 19.864 detik. Sampai akhirnya pembalap Ducati, Dovizioso mengalahkannya dengan peroelhan waktu 2 menit 19,402 detik.
Sementara itu pembalap satelit tim Marc VDS, Scott Redding menyusup ke posisi tiga di depan juara GP Qatar kemarin, Valentino Rossi. Danilo Petrucci dari tim Pramac yang menggeber Ducati berada di urutan lima. (otosport.otomotifnet.com)
