Third place went to the Sammarinese Alex De Angelis (OCTO Pramac MotoE), who was able to stay in the top three after leading the way in the morning’s opening session. Current series leader Dominique Aegerter did not take too long to find his way around the well-known Misano World Circuit ‘Marco Simoncelli’ aboard his Energica machine as he immediately settle into a good rhythm; he will now turn his attention to bridge the gap in terms of lap-time with the leading duo.

With Mattia Casadei (Ongetta Sic58 Squadracorse) a solid fifth, the returning Niki Tuuli (Avant Ajo Motorsport) finally showed glimpses of his 2019 form by claiming sixth place ahead of Mike Di Meglio (EG 0,0 Marc VDS), the LCR E-Team duo of Xavier Simeon and Niccolò Canepa, the current runner up in the championship standings Jordi Torres (Pons Racing 40) and Lukas Tulovic (Tech 3 E-Racing).

Little more than eight tenths of a second comprised these eleven riders, which is a good sign ahead of the third free practice of the weekend, taking place tomorrow morning from 11:50 local time (GMT +2).
