Stefan Bradl has made the best time on the final lap of the FP3 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Rossi was second and third Lorenzo. Marquez and Pedrosa were sixth and ninth.
The third and final free practice session started with a cloudy sky, 22 °C ambient temperature and 28° C track temperature. The first problem was from Iannone, who has been forced to stop the bike because of mechanical problems.
For more than 15 minutes nothing interesting happened on track, but Marc Marquez took the lead of the session from the beginning, second and third were Dovizioso and Iannone, who manage to be ahead of Lorenzo, Pedrosa and Rossi.
Entering the final 20 minutes, the positions were the same and at this time Espargaró touched some grass in the last corner, but fortunately was able to save himself from the fall.
In the last five minutes everything happened, Bautista lost control of his bike and has had a strong impact, causing him to fly above it, but fortunately was not hurt. The Yamaha of Rossi and Lorenzo have led the top positions and incredibly Espargaró was fourth, but came back and Bradl has been the best.
