MotoGP Assen - Free Practice (1) Results JUN-25-15.
World championship leader Valentino Rossi leads the timesheets during opening practice for the Dutch MotoGP at Assen.
Rossi and title rival Jorge Lorenzo each have one new Yamaha chassis to try this weekend, while Honda's Marc Marquez has reverted to the 2014 Honda chassis.
Marquez fell on his out-lap, the Spaniard running through the gravel and then sliding off on the grass.
Assen is the only surviving event from the inaugural 1949 grand prix season. Race day is traditionally held on the last Saturday in June, meaning practice starts on a Thursday.
Karel Abraham is absent due to foot injury at Catalunya...
