Gresini Ducati rider Alex Marquez topped the final day of the Sepang MotoGP pre-season test, narrowly beating factory stablemate Francesco Bagnaia. The opening portion of the last day was dedicated to time attack runs, with a frantic qualifying sim phase seeing top spot change hands a number of times.

Alex Marquez’s time was just over a tenth shy of the official lap record set by Bagnaia, with the latter missing out on top spot by a very slender +0.007s. The gaps gradually got bigger from there on as Quartararo was two tenths down on the fastest time, while Marc Marquez in fifth was over half a second away from his brother’s fastest lap.
