The tyre configurations were mostly both medium tyres, with some riders choosing a medium-soft combination.

Marc Márquez, who led the morning session, was in 5th place. On the other hand, Luca Marini put in an incredible lap, taking 3rd place. Shortly after, Jorge Martin pushed Marini down to 4th.

Francesco Bagnaia, who had a decent morning session, was now down in 21st place. The majority of the riders went into the pits to talk with their mechanics, leaving only a few riders on track.

Luca Marini used the empty track to find his way back to 4th place. So did Raul Fernandez, who was down the order, but he found the speed and moved into 5th place.

As the riders made their way back onto the track, they managed to find more speed and improve their positions, like Pedro Acosta, who took the lead and was the first rider to break into the 1:37s time range.

Another rider to join the 1:37s time range was Marco Bezzecchi, who moved into 2nd place. Acosta, in the lead, improved his time even further to a 1:37.418.

With 30 minutes left, the top 10 looked as follows: Acosta, Márquez, Bezzecchi, Aldeguer, Ogura, Marini, Fernandez, Binder, Martin, Bagnaia. The riders went into the pits before heading out for their final attempts. Again, some riders stayed on track to take advantage of the empty circuit.
