The second day of these post-Grand Prix of San Marino tests took place behind closed doors on the Misano World circuit Marco Simoncelli.
The Repsol team Honda, with only Marc Márquez, only drove on Monday and alone Stefan bradl represented the firm with the winged coat of arms this Tuesday.
From what we were able to observe, his two RC213Vs did not have the carbon swingarm that he had in FP4 in Brno. Was it damaged during its early fall in the Czech Republic? Despite the countless documents available to us, we cannot affirm that the German was thus equipped for his very brief race, and we are therefore unable to validate the hypothesis that Stefan Bradl would be, like Dani Pedrosa, in the waiting for a new carbon swingarm which takes months to manufacture…
Likewise, at KTM, no further fairing on this sunny Tuesday. Appearing on Friday morning in Misano, the latter was only used during a run during this weekend, before coming out briefly on Monday during the private test on one of the motorcycles. Espargaro Pol.
Randy de Puniet apparently didn't try it, just like Alex Hofmann who replaced the French driver on Tuesday.
At Aprilia, Scott Redding helped as best he could Alex Espargaro in the development of the RS-GP, although with many drops of water to its credit…
Yamaha , no longer having test days for its official drivers, was not present for this private test, but this was taken with humor by Valentino Rossi who said during his debriefing: “It doesn't matter, because we didn't do much, even when we had some (laughs). I don't think things will change much by the end of the season."
As for Ducati, everything seems to be going particularly well for them, since they have won every race since the summer break!
