Sofuoglu and Morais get down to work in Spain
Unfortunately weather conditions meant the team were unable to complete the work load but Kenan was able to show his potential in the only dry window during the two days. Morais was also able to accumulate some more experience in view of a 2012 championship that promises to be a tough one.
A brief stop to load up the bikes and then it was on the way to Valencia, a track that gave both riders the chance to complete more than 280 laps in dry weather and track conditions. Lap times were good, leaving the team confident about the progress made.
"It was important for me and the team to test and get the set-up work under way," said Vanni Lorenzini. "Unfortunately at Aragon we were unlucky with the weather and some minor crashes ruined the programme. At Valencia on the other hand we were able to try the settings and the electronics, as well as optimizing the rest of the bike. Kenan proved to be the great champion that he is by immediately lapping well. Sheridan, who is still lacking a bit of experience, made the most of the time available, ending the test just a few tenths away from his team-mate. We've now got a month and a half's break, which we will use to prepare the bikes in the best possible way. We should be back testing in January at Almeria on the 19th and 20th."
