Only 10 riders set lap times on a track that was drying throughout, not dissimilarly to Saturday morning's FP3 session.
There was no Jonathan Rea in Warm Up after he was declared unfit following his Race 1 crash.
Nicolo Bulega and Bradley Ray both took part, having been declared fit on Sunday morning following their own respective Race 1 falls.
