Jack Miller was the fastest in both Friday’s free practice at the Valencia racetrack. The result can be considered a minor surprise, as the Ricardo Tormo track is considered quite unsuitable for Ducati. The runners drove the second practice almost 10 seconds faster than the first. Among the faster between the two training sessions was also Franco Moribidelli, who finished first in second place and second place lower. In the second practice, Aprilia racer Aleix Espargaro surprised, as he was only slightly behind the best. Candidates for the title were not in the best mood with the exception of Moribidelli. Andrea Dovizioso, Maverick Vinales, Fabio Quartararo and Joan Mir were not in the middle of the table in both training sessions. Valentino Rossi was replaced by American Garrett Ge in Friday's training

The current world champion, Sebastian Vettel, was the fastest with a time of 1: 27.211 in Friday’s first free practice before the Australian Grand Prix. He set the time on medium-hard tires, and was closest to him by Ferrari racer Felipe Massa, who was just 0.078 seconds behind. Third was Fernando Alonso in a second Ferrari. Temperatures were much higher than those in tests in Barcelona and Jerez, but it was almost half an hour before any of the racers took the plunge and set the time. The first was Jean-Eric Vergne, and the better racers drove their laps almost forty minutes after the start of training, as they had previously waited for the track to clear. We also saw some small excursions from the trail, but the most frightening was Paul di Resta, who drove n before the fifth turn.
