Three days of testing at Sepang have shown several teams, and different tires, each competitive and on the pace. In the end, Honda’s former World champ Nicky Hayden was quicker than everyone else, while riding the new Honda chassis with last year’s engine on Michelin qualifiers.
The six riders with the quickest times included four different manufacturers, with three riders on Michelin tires and three riders on Bridgestones. Next stop is Phillip Island for more testing.
