MotoGP test in Valencia. A lot of news, everyone chases Honda – MotoGP

VALENCIA – There is a beautiful sun, but it is cold: it will be better to turn between 13 and 15. Il Alex Marquez's debut it happened in the worst way: suffered a fall after 7 laps: uninjured pilot, but certainly Alex was hoping for something different. To play down, we can say that he took the words of Brother Marc literally, when he says: "We must fall to find the limit". Absent, as expected, Pecco Bagnaia, injured in the fall in FP3, on the track instead Dani Pedrosa with a renewed KTM. In the live photos, comments and considerations, here are those of our engineer Giulio Bernardelle.

"It was several years since we had seen so many" obvious "innovations all together. The Yamaha has new chassis and aerodynamics; KTM has renewed the chassis; Ducati also worked on the chassis. The structural philosophy is that of the Honda 2019: we try to find a rigidity of the front part of the chassis that combines well with the characteristics of the front Michelin to allow the rider to better feel the grip limit of the tire. This goes beyond the driver's driving characteristics: everyone needs to understand where the tire can go. It can be said that after the RC213V 2019, these will be the first bikes with the chassis designed specifically for Michelin. More work is being done on the rear suspension than in the recent past: geometry and structure. Also in this case the tires enter: Honda has shown the way forward. We need to be able to make the soft rear last to do the whole race. "

It is likely that it won't go on until 5pm, considering the drop in temperature.

CLASSIFICATION AT 13.00
