Ducati Team testing at Jerez conditioned by bad weather
Today’s changeable weather conditions, following overnight rain, did not allow the track to dry out completely, and as a result the riders and the team were unable to take full advantage of the time available in preparation for the Jerez MotoGP race, which will be held on this circuit from 2 to 4 May.
Neither Crutchlow and Dovizioso, who yesterday afternoon were also involved in shooting a promotional video, recorded significant lap times in the two days, but they were able to confirm to Borgo Panigale engineers that the “full-factory” electronics fitted to their Desmosedici GP14 machines after the Qatar GP were working correctly.
The next appointment for the Ducati Team will be the Grand Prix of the Americas, the second round of the MotoGP World Championship, which will be held next week from 11 to 13 April at the COTA circuit in Austin, Texas.
