2011 Aragon Moto2 FP1 Result: Marquez Edges Espargaro

Marc Marquez ended the first session of free practice for the Moto2 class at Aragon on top of the timesheets, but his margin was very slim. The Spaniard just crept ahead of Pons Kalex' Aleix Espargaro, who had led for a large part of the session, by just two-hundredths of a second. Marquez' time was set on the 2012 version of the Suter Moto2 machine, the Catalunya Caixa team having persuaded Eskil Suter to allow Marquez to use the new chassis after three days of testing at Valencia.�

Andrea Iannone ended the session in 3rd, finishing just ahead of Marc VDS Racing's Scott Redding, while Alex de Angelis set the 5th fastest time. Ant West's crew chief change - adding veteran engineer Warren Willing to lead the MZ team - appears to be paying dividends, the Australian putting his MZ-badged FTR into 7th, just behind Simone Corsi on the Ioda Racing FTR, and ahead of championship leader Stefan Bradl
