Despite the reduction to the bikes’ capacity in the MotoGP class from a 990 cc to 800 cc Rossi was able to establish a new record. The preceding finest lap was 1:39.064 set by Loris Capirossi on a Ducati in 2006.
Rossi's main title rival Dani Pedrosa from Spain was second quickest, 0.133 down on a Yamaha, while the Italian's team mate Colin Edwards clocked the third fastest time.
Spaniard Dani Pedrosa was driving a Honda and he expected to push Rossi all the way. Pedrosa was able to beat Capirossi's 2006 record while Rossi's American team-mate Colin Edwards, set the third best time of the day with 1:39.300.
