Ahead of this weekend’s Spanish MotoGP season-opener, Official testing was held at the Jerez circuit on Wednesday, marking the first time most riders have been on their MotoGP bikes since Qatar in February.
Reigning champion Marc Marquez was quickest in the 90-minute morning session, his best lap time of 1m 37.941s remaining unbeaten until the closing stages of the afternoon session, when Petronas Yamaha’s Fabio Quartararo joined the Honda rider in breaking the 1m 38s barrier.
But Monster Yamaha’s Maverick Vinales then leapfrogged them both to finish the day on top, having been just 13th this morning.
The afternoon session was halted for 45-minutes due to an early oil leak from Espargaro’s Aprilia, which caused accidents for both Alex Marquez and Danilo Petrucci at Turn 11.
The Italian, just 20th fastest in the morning, required a visit the medical centre and was said by the team to be ‘okay’ despite not returning to the track. Around the same time as the oil spill, there was also a power cut at the circuit, perhaps due to the roasting 50-degree track temperatures.
Opening practice for the Spanish MotoGP will start on Friday morning…
