Tweet

After the strong debut last week in Valencia, San Carlo Team Italia wrapped up three more days of test in Jerez with the rest of the Moto3 field. With rain falling during day one and three, Romano Fenati took advantage of the adverse weather to practice in the wet, showing great improvements and posting the fourth fastest time (+ 0.690) during the last day. The Italian rider was 13th fastest in the cumulative time sheets (1'48.842), where Viñales was still on top.

"I trained a lot in the wet during the winter break. I'm pretty happy with these tests. We worked hard and tried many things on the bike, which is pretty similar to what we had last year. We are still chasing KTM, but in March we'll try the new engine and hopefully it'll be enough to cut the gap."

Francesco Bagnaia (1'49.829) kept familiarizing with his Honda-FTR bike. The rookie closed the three days in Spain with the 26th time, one second behind his teammate.

"Romano was one of the best rookies last season and I hope to follow his steps. I'm happy with the way things are going, we're working hard and the first results are showing. I love the bike, it allows me to entry corners with a lot of speed. I'm more confident on the FTR and starting to ride it the way I want to. The level is really high but it was to expected with the best young riders in the world. I can still improve a lot. I'll be ready when the championship starts."

Both riders will try the new Honda engines at the last Moto3 tests, which will take place in Jerez on March 18-21.
