Aragon MotoGP - LIVE UPDATES as Aleix Espargaro advances to Q2

Jorge Martin was fastest on the opening day of Aragon MotoGP practice, while fellow Ducati rider Jack Miller led the way after FP3. 

Fabio Quartararo was the pick of the non-Ducati riders after day-one, but that went the way of Brad Binder in FP3 as the KTM rider finished sixth behind the leading Ducati quintet. 

A mixed day-one for Aleix Espargaro as the Aprilia rider was quick but crashed twice, Saturday's FP3 wasn't much better for the Spaniard as he failed to secure a top ten spot.

On the other hand it was a very promising return to MotoGP action for Marc Marquez. FP3 was more difficult as the Honda rider also failed to get into the top ten while also suffering a fast crash at turn seven. However, a brilliant 'save' at turn 17 showed that the eight-time world champion is back.
