Mar♕c Marquez and Valentino Rossi among riders who joined WorldSBK test day at Portimao
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valentino Rossi shared the Portimao track on Monday.
Marquez has also been in acti🌜on 🃏on Tuesday but Rossi hasn't yet emerged.
The old rivals were each riding road bikes on the first of two days organised by the Aruba.it Ducati 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:WorldSBK team.
Ducati MotoGP riders were also invited to part🌠ake - with the Marquez brothers, Francesco Bagnaia, Franco Morbidelli, Fabio di Giannan꧋tonio and Enea Bastianini featuring.
Lu༺ca Marini, formerly of VR46 but now with Repsol Honda, was also on track🧔.
Both Marc and Alex Marquez did not fit a ♓transponder on♚to their bikes so their test timings were not publicly recorded, however. Also on Tuesday, the brothers did not use a transponder.
Marc was ridin♚g a 240hp Ducati𒐪 Panigale V4 R for the first time.
His choice to keep his test timings quiet was perhaps a clever ploy to hide his progress from nearby rivals ahead of the 2024 MotoGP season, when fellow Ducati riders believe he will return to fighting for the champওionshi🍌p.
And, spe🐎aking of fighting, Marquez shared a track with Ro🦂ssi again on Monday.
Rossi, the MotওoGP legend and VR46 team owner, could not pass up the opportunity to join hiꦛs riders on a bike.
He jumped on a Yamaha R1🐼 - the bike which the Japanese manufacturer gave him when he retired in 2021.
Rossi was 30th-fastest🍸 on Monday with♍ a best lap time of 1:44.703, compared to the 1:39.913 that Nicolo Bulega posted to top the timesheet.
VR46 rider💯 Bezzecchi posted 1:43.622 and Di Giannantonio's time was 1:43.74𝓡0.
