The third and final day of the second pre-season MotoGP Test at the Sepang International Circuit concluded on Thursday with Casey Stoner leading the times. The Repsol Honda rider posted a 2’00.473 in the morning; an effort that registered the best time of the entire Test though was 0.8s off his best effort from the first pre-season Test at the same track.
Dani Pedrosa trailed his team-mate by 0.175s as the Spanish rider focused his efforts on chassis modifications to improve stability under braking and reduce front end chatter. Andrea Dovizioso was three tenths from Stoner with a time of 2’00.802 on his Tech 3 machine as the Italian continues to make big strides on the Yamaha.
Yamaha Factory Racing’s Jorge Lorenzo was fourth quickest and ended his day with a race simulation that revealed the more powerful 1000cc bikes will require careful tyre management. The 2010 World Champion reported that the new soft Bridgestones lost their grip early in the simulation making braking more difficult due to sliding. The Spaniard also reported that the electronics improvements made during this test made corner entry easier and smoothed out the YZR-M1 overall.

1. Casey Stoner : Repsol Honda Team : 02:00.473 laps 34
2. Dani Pedrosa : Repsol Honda Team : 02:00.648 laps 40
