Randy de Puniet set the fastest lap time at Assen in today’s free practice session.

The session was initially dominated by Rossi and Lorenzo, but de Puniet found some extra time in his penultimate lap and posted the top time of the day.

Yuki Takahashi suffered a nasty high-side and had to be helped away by safety marshalls. Takahashi was already suffering from a fractured finger that he received in his crash at Catalunya.
