In-between the back-to-back Misano MotoGP rounds, a day of official testing is being held at the Italian circuit on Tuesday.
The track action is divided into two sessions with Session 1 was held from 9:30-13:00, followed by a one-hour lunch break. Second 2 then takes place from 14:00-18:00.
Espargaro was fastest for KTM during the morning session, with Bagnaia and Mir making it three different machines in the top three.
With engines frozen for 2021, many factory teams are trying chassis and – in the case of Yamaha – exhaust updates.
Sunday’s race winner Franco Morbidelli is not taking part due to a ‘stomach upset’.
Last weekend’s pole position time was a 1m 31.411s (Vinales) and the fastest race lap a 1m 32.706 (Bagnaia).
Tyre selection is the same as for the Misano races…
