The lap times of rookies Lecuona and Binder were not available.Of the others with a known Wednesday time, Ducati test rider Michele Pirro matched Espargaro’s 1m 33.1s while Aprilia’s Aleix Espargaro improved by half-a-second over yesterday with a 1m 33.4s on the new RS-GP.Team-mate Bradley Smith, who will start the season alongside Espargaro, was slightly slower than on day one with a 1m 34.2s.
