HRC is approaching the first tests of the off-season in fairly difficult conditions. Its drivers are indeed not at the top. Marc Marquez still recovering from shoulder surgery, Cal Crutchlow is still not at the top due to the significant ankle injury sustained after his heavy fall at the last Australian Grand Prix. And Jorge Lorenzo is out of action with a broken left wrist. The only healthy test driver is Stefan Bradl, who will line up in place of the Mallorcan from February 6 to 8 in Malaysia.
HRC test pilot, the German has no ban on testing. Tomorrow and Thursday, the latest version of the RC213V will be on the Jerez track alongside the Superbike drivers. A good test for Bradl, who will have two days to provide as much data as possible to Honda, before leaving for Sepang.
From February 1 to 3, there will be the shakedown, in which will also participate Jonas Folger (yamaha), Michele Pirro (Dozens), Sylvain Guintoli (Suzuki), Bradley Smith (Aprilia) and Mika Kallio (KTM). Then Bradl will continue his journey, but this time alongside Marc Marquez ! News from our partner Motoracing...
