Although times at a test like this can be misleading, it was not surprising to see Alex Marquez (Ducati) fastest on the GP24 bike that just won the World championship under Jorge Martin. The talented former champ Fabio Quartararo finished second quickest on the latest iteration of his Yamaha.
Enea Bastianini and Maverick Vinales made their debut in the KTM garage, while newly crowned champ Jorge Martin and Marco Bezzecchi completed their first laps on their Aprilia machinery.
Aleix Espargaro, just two days after his retirement from racing, made his debut as a Honda test rider and proceeded to lap faster than both of the factory riders Joan Mir and Luca Marini. Aleix reportedly provided valuable feedback to Honda personnel.
