    Saturday’s schedule:<\/h2>\n

    10:10am (local) \/ 3:10am (UK) – MotoGP FP2<\/em>
    10:50am (local) \/ 3:50am (UK) – MotoGP Qualifying<\/em>
    3:00pm (local) \/ 8:00am (UK) – MotoGP Sprint<\/em><\/p>\n

    Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez are separated by just two points at the top of the MotoGP World Championship heading into Saturday at Mandalika.<\/p>\n

    Marquez took a perfect double win at Motegi but will be braced for an Aprilia fightback after the factory\u2019s dominant 2025 Mandalika form continued with a 1-2-3 in Friday practice.<\/p>\n

    However, it wasn’t Martin or factory team-mate Marco Bezzecchi on top, but Trackhouse Aprilia rider Raul Fernandez.<\/p>\n

    Pedro Acosta was best of the rest for KTM, followed by Ducati’s reigning champion Marc Marquez.<\/p>\n

    With Bezzecchi and Marquez colliding last year, Fermin Aldeguer took his first and so far only victory while the rest of the Ducati riders struggled on the special heat-resistant rear tyre.<\/p>\n

    However, Aldeguer faces Qualifying 1 today after suffering a nightmare two falls and then a technical issue on Friday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
