Misano MotoGP

15:30

15:29 Pedrosa takes two tenths out of Rossi on his first clear lap since passing Lorenzo. With 10 laps to go, if he can maintain this pace he is going to catch the leader. Can he deny Rossi a victory on home soil?

15:28 More bad news for Suzuki - Espargaro has crashed at Turn 10 from 10th place.

15:28 Vinales is forced to let Dovizioso through for track limits infringements, so he drops back to sixth.

15:27 Lorenzo tries to cover off Pedrosa's favoured attack at the end of the lap, but Pedrosa - looking more determined than we've seen in a long time - forces his way through! He's up to second.

15:26 Rossi's lead over Lorenzo is 0.9s at the moment - that won't take Pedrosa long to eat into if he can pick off the second Yamaha quickly.

15:25 Pedrosa has a look at repeating the pass he put on Marquez near the end of the lap, but Lorenzo doesn't give him a chance. Right now it looks like it's only a matter of time.

15:25

15:25 Lorenzo would be doing Rossi a favour here if he keeps Pedrosa at bay for a little while. But with Pedrosa looking like a man on a mission, his countryman may not have a choice in the matter.

15:03 Decisive move by Marquez there. For all of the talk about his new conservative approach, that killer instinct remains.

15:03 Lorenzo, Rossi, Vinales, Marquez, Dovizioso, Pedrosa, Crutchlow, A Espargaro, Pirro, P Espargaro.

15:02 Marquez picks off Dovizioso into Turn 2, so Vinales probably won't be clear in third for long.

15:02 An error for Dovizioso down the backstraight has given Vinales a brief breather at the end of the opening lap.

15:02 Rossi is all over Lorenzo as the Yamahas break away. Game on.

15:01 Dovizioso chases the top three, with the factory Hondas completing the top six. The Yamahas are getting away as everyone else chases Vinales.

15:01 Lorenzo gets away cleanly, and Rossi fends off Vinales through the opening corners to make it a Yamaha one-two.

15:00 We are go at Misano!

15:00 Here we go then, the riders lining up on the grid for the start...

14:58 The field sets off for the formation lap.
