As planned, today and tomorrow a MotoGP test is taking place on the Sepang circuit so that the manufacturers' test riders can record the data specific to the renovated track (total re-surfacing but also a new drainage system, new vibrators and new clearances).
This also concerns Michelin who will have to choose the allocation proposed to the titular pilots for the Malaysian Grand Prix, October 30, depending on the new coating.
Colin Edwards, one of Yamaha's test riders, reported on Twitter that an overnight rain had delayed the start of MotoGP.
Cal Crutchlow also seems spot on, as evidenced by his photo on Instagram.
Humor : In the event of prolonged rain, the Speng circuit has planned to have the track tested by the national idol, Chickaboo, a young 6-month-old ostrich who escaped and whose race in the city of Kuala Lumpur quickly became a viral joke.
