RICARDO TORMO CIRCUIT / VALENCIA, SPAIN
MOTOGP I WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TEST

have a name or, for that matter, an owner.
After the debacle that saw 60 percent team
owner CryptoDATA kicked out of the series
by Dorna and Team Manager Razlan Razali
leave the paddock, the crew kicked on with
rider Raul Fernandez, as his teammate Miguel
Oliveira will be out of action until the first test
in Sepang following a shoulder injury suffered
in Qatar.
Fernandez is really getting the hang of the
MotoGP machine now and after finishing fifth
in the Valencian MotoGP he backed it up with
another fifth in the test after 64 laps, 0.263
seconds off Vinales. Information on just how
his test went and what he tested is scarce,
but at least he will be on the grid next year,
with new owners of the Aprilia Satellite Team
expected to be announced soon.
