3rd and final day of testing is now complete.
Here's a good summary:

Valentino Rossi
4th | 1'59.401 | 49 Laps
âToday Iâm more satisfied. It was a good day and we did a good job, especially because we tested everything and we decided what we have to use to continue the development. Iâm very happy because 1â59.4 is my best lap in Sepang in my whole career and Iâm already 0.3 faster compared to last year. Itâs true that the conditions today are good, but also compared to yesterday we improved the setting of the bike a lot and also my pace is not so bad. We also tried a race simulation, but not with our performance at a hundred per cent. We tried some different parts for the bike, something good and something I didnât like. My pace in the simulation was quite good so the test was positive. The only negative thing was the speed of Marc and Dani. They are a little bit faster than us on a lap with a fresh tyre, but also in terms of pace. That means that, if we want to beat them, we have to keep working.â
Jorge Lorenzo
5th | 1'59.624 | 55 Laps
âIn the morning we werenât very explosive to make a good lap time because the bike didnât stop so well on the brakes. We modified the set-up to improve the braking, but we didnât have any new tyres left to do a good lap time. I think we might not have been able to ride a 1â58, but maybe a low 1â59. The race simulation was interesting. We did one at the time of day when the temperature was the highest and our pace was very consistent. I think that if there was a race tomorrow, we could fight for the win, so this is positive. The bike improved a little compared to how it was at the Valencia test. I think we have a big thing to try at the second test at Sepang. Letâs see if this is clearly better.â
