Preseason testing is almost on a round-the-clock schedule at the moment: after the World Superbike machines were rolled off the track and into the garages at the end of day 1 of the official WSBK test, garage doors at Jerez, on the other side of the world, were flung open, and the MotoGP CRT teams rolled onto the track for the first day of a three-day test at the Spanish circuit.
The second CRT test is an all-Aprilia affair, with Aspar's Randy de Puniet and Aleix Espargaro continuing the development of the ART machine, Mattia Pasini getting his second run out on the Speed Master Aprilia ART, and Danilo Petrucci taking the trellis-framed IODA Aprilia out in the afternoon. James Ellison was also at the circuit, but got no further than sitting on the bike, as the team took delivery of their ART machine and spent the first day setting it up properly. As he has been so far throughout the CRT tests, De Puniet was the fastest man on the day, a full second quicker than his teammate Aleix Espargaro, though the Spaniard was also slowed up by the flu. Pasini ended the day 1.7 seconds off the time of De Puniet, while Danilo Petrucci made a solid start on his MotoGP debut by matching the pace of Pasini.
