Jerez test for 125/250s

The final day of a three-day test for around 20 of the 125 and 250cc GP teams has been affected by heavy clouds and strong winds.

While some teams gave the final few hours a miss, there were also a number of falls, although none were serious. Roberto Locatelli was the fastest 250cc rider, despite a crash on the first day. He lapped in 1:45.249.

In the 125cc class, Mattia Pasini also improved, staying top with a time of 1:47.652 for the Aspar team. Fellow Aspar riders Hector Faubel and Alvaro Bautista were third and fourth quickest, with only Derbi Racing’s Lukas Pesek splitting the trio.
