Moto3 Sachsenring FT1 2022: Izan Guevara starts with fastest time

In sunshine Izan Guevara starts fastest into the Germany weekend – Jaume Masia causes the only incident with a fall

Izan Guevara (GasGas) secured the fastest time in the first Moto3 race of the German Grand Prix. The Spaniard lapped the Sachsenring in 1’26.459, just over two-tenths of a second faster than John McPhee (Husqvarna).

McPhee’s teammate Ayumu Sasaki made his comeback this weekend. The Japanese rider had injured himself in a crash at Mugello and therefore had to skip Barcelona. Diogo Moreira (KTM) was also back. The rookie had decided not to take part in the race in Barcelona.

In the first ten minutes, Moto3 rookie Jaume Masia crashed off his KTM in turn 1 and lost valuable practice time. The weather was optimal in the morning. The sky was almost cloudless and the air temperature was 20 degrees Celsius.

The fastest lap times were set at the end. Guevara set the fastest time in his 18th lap. The usual suspects were again to be found in the leading field. Behind Guevara and McPhee was Dennis Foggia.

Deniz Öncü (KTM) and Sergio Garcia (GasGas) followed in fourth and fifth. Sasaki made a successful comeback with sixth place. Ryusei Yamanaka (KTM) was in line behind him. On Sunday, the Japanese rider has to complete a long-lap penalty.

Yamanaka had caused an accident in Barcelona. The top 10 were completed by Tatsuki Suzuki (Honda), Adrian Fernandez (KTM) and Riccardo Rossi (Honda). There is no German in the smallest class at the home race.
