        Due giorni ottimi per il pilota portacolori del team Marc VDS. Nella seconda giornata Tony ha chiuso la sessione della mattina in seconda posizione con un best lap 1:41.742 e 31 giri all&rsquo;attivo. Nella classifica finale di oggi Arbolino si prende la quarta posizione a +0.424 dal leader del team Ajo KTM.&nbsp; Sentiamo quindi come &egrave; andato il day 2 a Jerez: &ldquo;Questi test 2023 sono andati davvero molto bene, mi sento un tutt&rsquo;uno con la moto e anche fisicamente sono al 100%. Oggi abbiamo cercato di lavorare su tanti aspetti con il team e devo dire che sono soddisfatto su quanto fatto. La mia confidenza e il feeling sono in crescita.&rdquo;  Calendario Moto2 2023&nbsp; Arbolino a Jerez &Egrave; stato uno dei pochi, l&rsquo;italiano, a stare al passo con lo spagnolo Pedro Acosta che ha concluso le due giornate al top. &ldquo;Seppur ho provato il time attack solo una volta oggi, per&ograve; ho lavorato bene anche se non ho spinto troppo quindi il margine c&rsquo;&egrave; per migliorare. A Portimao avremo ulteriori tre giorni di test dove ci prepareremo al meglio per l&rsquo;inizio di stagione.&rdquo;         

Tony conclude i test sul tracciato di Jerez con la mente gi&agrave; a Portimao&nbsp;

Moto 2 Test Jerez, Tony Arbolino ha il passo per trionfare quest’anno

        The first test of the 2023 Superbike season is fast approaching and it promises to offer a real taste of what we&rsquo;ll be able to enjoy as of the first Phillip Island round, set to run over the last weekend of February. Weather permitting, almost the entire 2023 grid will take to the Jerez track, the only exceptions being Axel Bassani and MIE Honda riders Eric Granado and Hafizh Syahrin. All the big names will be there, starting with Alvaro Bautista, who will ride the highly anticipated new 2023 Ducati Panigale V4R for the first time, just one day after the team presentation in Madonna di Campiglio. First ball for Petrucci  The Spaniard&rsquo;s main rivals will also be in attendance of course, with Jonathan Rea and Toprak Razgatlioglu having already tested at the Andalusian track in late 2022, albeit it in adverse conditions, along with team-mates Alex Lowes and Andrea Locatelli. The two-day test will also mark Danilo Petrucci&rsquo;s debut outing aboard the team Barni Panigale. The arrival of the Italian has had a thunderous impact on the category, but we will soon have an idea of his true potential. Another Italian preparing to test is Lorenzo Baldassarri, who will ride the R1 for team GMT94, while both Dominique Aegerter and Remy Gardner will also return to the track. Several Supersport teams will be out, starting with the Aruba, Evan Bros and Althea squads, all three fielding Italian riders in the shape of Nicol&ograve; Bulega, Andrea Mantovani and Federico Caricasulo. The Honda MotoGP test team will also share the track, with Stefan Bradl hard at work ahead of the upcoming season.

SBK: the big three, Petrucci and more. Here are the riders set to test at Jerez

        The word &lsquo;holiday&rsquo; doesn&rsquo;t feature in the Superbike dictionary, with teams still hard at work during the run up to Christmas. Today marks the start of a three-day test session at Jerez, which should be interesting considering the riders involved. First up is the factory Yamaha team, Toprak Razgatlioglu and Andrea Locatelli both ready for their first outing of 2023. The pair should benefit from a partly updated engine, as the team seeks additional horsepower so as to be able to be keep pace with Alvaro Bautista and Ducati. Spotlight on Gardner and Aegerter  Alongside the Yamaha team is Honda, with re-confirmed riders Iker Lecuona and Xavi Vierge, and BMW Bonovo, which can count on the experience of Loris Baz and the fighting spirit of Garrett Gerloff, who will ride the M1000RR for the first time. Team GRT will be firmly in the spotlight, attending the Andalusian test with its two new riders. We&rsquo;re talking Dominique Aegerter and Remy Gardner of course, both ready for a first taste of the Yamaha R1. Also in attendance is team MIE, with the re-confirmed Hafizh Syahrin and new-entry Eric Granado, as well as the Honda test team (Honda organized this test) and KTM. It should be an interesting few days, weather permitting that is, as the forecast looks less than ideal in Andalusia this week.       

A very interesting three-day test begins today in Andalusia, with Gardner and Aegerter set to make their debut

New entries and more: SBK at Jerez for the final test of 2022

        Work is in progress at Jerez. Just a few days after the end of the 2021 season, the MotoGP riders and teams are already back on track. These are the first 2022 pre-season tests, very important sessions in which the engineers will collate information and data with which to set-up the bikes for next season over the next two months. Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki  With no Marc M&aacute;rquez and a Pol Espargar&oacute; who is still physically weak after his crash four days ago at Valencia, Honda has Alex M&aacute;rquez and Takaaki Nakagami riding the prototypes this week, with six bikes in the Team LCR garage today! Yamaha has brought three new-generation engines to Jerez, one for each of its 2022 factory riders, Fabio Quartararo, Franco Morbidelli and Andrea Dovizioso. Suzuki doesn&rsquo;t have any new bikes as such, and is following a different path, using this year&rsquo;s bikes with the addition of 2022 components in order to evaluate the changes in performance and behaviour with respect to the bikes used up until just a few days ago. Among other things, there are four new engines, two per rider. Ducati, Aprilia and KTM  Ducati is working on a new engine, an evolved frame and new bodywork. With eight bikes on track, the parts in development are being passed from one bike to another so as to have feedback from the different riders. As well as its 2021 bikes, Aprilia explains that it has brought two &ldquo;hybrid&rdquo; bikes, which means they are &ldquo;old&rdquo; bikes complete with 2022 parts, including engine, frame and swingarm. The Noale brand now has three new riders, Aleix Espargar&oacute; and Maverick Vi&ntilde;ales being joined by Lorenzo Savadori. Aleix suffered a crash this afternoon, but was unhurt. At KTM the biggest new element is the arrival of Remy Gardner and Raul Fernandez who, together with Italians Bezzechi and Di Giannantonio, make up the category&rsquo;s rookies. Having ridden yesterday at Jerez, Dani Pedrosa is trackside today, watching the other riders. He is set to ride again tomorrow. Translated by Heather Watson Xavi For&eacute;s vents: &ldquo;BMW, you don&rsquo;t deserve me as a rider or person&rdquo;       

Ducati is working on a new engine, an evolved frame and new bodywork, while Suzuki is evaluating its 2022 components on this season&rsquo;s bikes. Let&rsquo;s look at the work going on, garage by garage

Jerez MotoGP test – here’s what teams are working on

        Sorride Franco Morbidelli al termine della giornata di test in quel di Jerez, per diversi motivi. Oltre all&rsquo;ottimo risultato di ieri infatti il numero 21 pu&ograve; godersi le positive risposte ottenute oggi, che da pilota riflessivo qual &egrave; prende per&ograve; con le dovute precauzioni. &ldquo;E&rsquo; stato un test interessante - apre Franco -&nbsp;dove ho potuto provare alcune novit&agrave; ed un diverso forcellone, concentrandomi poi principalmente sulla frenata: grazie ad alcune modifiche di assetto ho potuto frenare pi&ugrave; forte. Ad ogni modo occorre analizzare attentamente le sensazioni dei test del luned&igrave;, dato che a volte alcuni problemi si risolvono davvero, mentre altri si risolvono solo grazie a particolari condizioni della pista, ad esempio la maggiore quantit&agrave; di gomma presente sull&rsquo;asfalto&rdquo;. Franco prosegue nella disanima delle parti provate nel corso del luned&igrave; andaluso, ma ancora una volta non si sbilancia. &ldquo;Ho provato un nuovo forcellone in carbonio, che ho trovato diverso dal precedente. L&rsquo;ho montato sul finale di giornata, quindi non ho collezionato tantissimi dati: mi pare abbia del potenziale, ma al momento non saprei dire se potrei usarlo o meno a Le Mans. Ho provato anche un parafango inedito, ma il mio compito era solo quello di raccogliere dei dati, e cos&igrave; ho fatto&rdquo;. Morbidelli: &ldquo;Voglio pensare gara per gara&rdquo;  Come suggerito dallo stesso Morbidelli il prossimo impegno per lui e tutta la MotoGP si chiama Le Mans, gara alla quale Franco vuole dedicare tutta la sua attenzione, senza pensare ad altri tracciati che potrebbero metterlo in difficolt&agrave;, come ad esempio il Mugello. &ldquo;Spero che la base trovata oggi possa funzionare anche a Le Mans. Oltre a quella gara non voglio guardare, non ce la faccio, ho una vista molto corta. Voglio prendere una gara per volta, senza pensare al Mugello: quando sar&agrave; il momento vedremo&rdquo;. L&rsquo;ultima battuta il pilota nativo di Roma la dedica ai possibili margini di miglioramenti suoi e della sua M1, che potrebbero non essersi esauriti, nonostante le conclamate differenze tra la moto di Franco e quella di tutti gli altri portacolori Yamaha. &ldquo;Non saprei se i miei margini di miglioramenti siano maggiori di quelli della moto, io posso solo cercare di dare il meglio, come sta facendo la moto grazie al lavoro di Ramon (Forcada ndr)&rdquo;. MotoGP test Jerez, Rossi: &ldquo;Giornata positiva, ma non m'illudo&rdquo;       

"A volte i problemi si risolvono davvero, altre solamente grazie a determinate condizioni. Ho provato un nuovo forcellone, pare abbia potenziale. Penso ad una gara per volta, non riesco a fare diversamente"

MotoGP, Morbidelli: &ldquo;Trovata una buona base, ma i test possono ingannare&rdquo;

New bike, same result. Jonathan Rea baptised his new Kawasaki ZX-10RR today, and he did so in the best possible way, rounding out this second (and final) day of testing at Jerez on top of the pile. The World Champion set a best of 1&rsquo;38&rdquo;324, immediately able to get the best out of the latest bike, an improvement on its predecessor particularly in terms of its engine and electronics. The rest was down to Rea&rsquo;s right wrist, the rider even managing to finish ahead of a MotoGP (and not for the first time).  The bike in question was Stefan Bradl&rsquo;s Honda, the German finishing just 15 milliseconds from the leader and followed, almost half a second back, by Toprak Razgatliolgu. The Turk was out on track with the 2021 version of the R1, able to close just ahead of the other factory Kawasaki rider Alex Lowes.  Gerloff&rsquo;s debuts with the 2021 R1, Locatelli continues with his apprenticeship   In fifth position, roughly eight tenths from the front, was yesterday&rsquo;s leader Garrett Gerloff, also aboard the 2021 bike after making various comparative tests on day one. Following behind the Kawasakis and Yamahas was Leon Haslam, albeit a second and a half off the pace, proof that Honda still has work to do. Rookie Andrea Locatelli set a similar time as he gets to grips with the category aboard his 2020 R1.  A positive day overall for Lucas Mahias (+1.870), he too making his debut, while Alvaro Bautista appeared to struggle, just ninth and almost two seconds from the leader. It was a training day for the other two rookies Kotha Nozane and Isaac Vinales, roughly 2.5 seconds from Rea and still seeking the right confidence with their Yamaha and Kawasaki respectively. Loris Cresson rounded out the classification, having handed his bike over to Luca Salvadori for a few hours, the Italian on track for promotional purposes.  The standings     Translated by Heather Watson  WorldSSP, Caricasulo: &quot;One step back to take two steps forward&quot; 

The Northern Irishman finishes a fraction ahead of Bradl, Razgatlioglu 3rd and Gerloff 5th, both with the 2020 R1. Locatelli&rsquo;s apprenticeship continues. Bautista in difficulty, two seconds off the pace

SBK, Jerez test: Rea and the new Kawasaki beat the MotoGP Honda

        Not even a crash &ndash; which fortunately caused no physical damage &ndash; could stop a determined Garrett Gerloff, riding for team GRT. Stopping the clock on 1'39"571, his lap time secured him the top spot at the end of day one of SBK testing at Jerez. At the Andalusian track, number 31 is riding a 2020 version of the R1 M, so a factory bike, which will gradually gain new, 2021 parts. Having surprised everyone this year and following his positive MotoGP experience, the 25-year old Texan continues to prove that he is one to watch. The pride and strength of Rea are well known, but today Johnny settled for second. The number 1 rider, with his "Winter Test" livery, tried right until the final minute of the session, but closed four tenths from his American rival. The new Kawasaki engine is powerful, the electronics boast brand-new parameters and KRT is working to optimise the package. So the chasing pack has its work cut out, starting with Andrea Locatelli, the last rider to leave the track. The Supersport world champion is discovering the secrets of a factory Superbike, including launch control, a technological "device" that can make the difference off the line. Razga the most spectacular, Cresson needs time to grow  Toprak once again stole the show with his stoppies, the rear wheel up and pointing towards the sky. The Turk closed third, followed by Alex Lowes, Leon Haslam, Alvaro Bautista and &lsquo;Loka&rsquo;. Of the independent riders, Lucas Mahias did well on the Puccetti Ninja, as did Isaac Vinales, debuting with the Orelac ZX-10RR, while Belgian rider Loris Cresson struggled, suffering a bad crash that left the Pedercini bike fairly damaged, though the rider is fortunately fine. The standings   Translated by Heather Watson WorldSSP, Caricasulo: "One step back to take two steps forward"       

Aboard a 2020 Yamaha R1, Garrett is the quickest of the day. A final time attack saw Johnny him close second, Razgatlioglu third, Locatelli seventh

SBK, Jerez Test: Neither Rea nor a crash can stop the Gerloff fury

Tra olio in pista, interruzioni e bandiere rosse, pure il secondo giorno di test andalusi &egrave; stato completato, con i piloti della SBK impegnati sulla pista di Jerez. Gira che ti rigira - eccome, se gira! - il nome di Johnny Rea rimane sempre e comunque in cima alla lista dei riferimenti. Primo stamattina, primo oggi. Il nordirlandese e la sua Ninha ZX-10RR ufficiale, montate due gomme Pirelli da qualifica, hanno sfidato - pi&ugrave; che gli avversari - il cronometro, siglando il tempo di 1&#39;38&rdquo;397; il campione &egrave; stato l&rsquo;unico corridore a scendere sotto il muro del &rsquo;39, perch&eacute; da Baz a Canepa i rivali sono piuttosto racchiusi in pochi decimi.  Sorprendente Loris, ma fino ad un certo punto: partito tardi nel 2019, con un progetto Ten Kate ex novo e bisognoso di chilometri, il francese si &egrave; poi rivelato competitivo sulla Yamaha R1, dimostrando in Spagna di averla ancora bene &ldquo;tra le mani&rdquo;, grosse e sensibili, che gli hanno garantito la seconda posizione nella tabella. Che hanno in comune la moto di Baz e quella di Canepa? Apparentemente tutto, in realt&agrave;, Niccol&ograve; &egrave; il collaudatore della Casa di Iwata, con in pista la versione 2020, tutta da sviluppare. In mezzo a loro ci sono il compagno di marca Van Der Mark, Alex Lowes con la seconda Kawasaki Provec, la prima Ducati con Redding sempre meglio di Davies, Sykes su una BMW pi&ugrave; potente rispetto a quella vista in azione quest&rsquo;anno e Razgatlioglu, che ha intrattenuto i presenti con i suoi infiniti stoppies nella pit lane.  La seconda Panigale V4 R &egrave; nona, con Chaz impegnato a sperimentare nuove soluzioni di elettronica; risale la china Laverty, stamattina tranquillo, nel pomeriggio pi&ugrave; attivo e decimo nel finale. Dopo la parentesi (cos&igrave; cos&igrave;) Honda vissuta nel British Superbike, Fores torna nella &ldquo;sua&rdquo; Spagna, entrando nel team Puccetti, guidando una Kawasaki Ninja: Xavi precede Pirro, dopo arrivano i rookie Caricasulo e Gerloff. Federico sta scoprendo la Superbike, Garrett il tracciato andaluso. L&rsquo;anno elettrico ed italiano di Savadori lo hanno rilanciato nel mondiale, ed eccolo schierato da Pedercini; Lorenzo ha fatto meglio di Ponsson, francese che correr&agrave; nel tricolore con una Aprilia RSV4. Per lui sono previste tre wild card internazionali, sarebbe bello vedere la quattro cilindri veneta iscritta regolarmente a tutto il World Superbike 2020. 

Pure con gomme da qualifica, Johnny e la sua Kawasaki mettono in riga la concorrenza. Baz &egrave; secondo, Redding quinto, Canepa ottavo
