\"marc_marquez-2016\"<\/a>Night two of the pre-season test at Losail International Circuit<\/strong> saw Repsol Honda<\/strong>\u2019s Marc Marquez<\/strong> entering the track a few minutes after 6 p.m. local time, with his teammate Dani Pedrosa<\/strong> following immediately afterward.<\/p>\n

On his first run, Marquez<\/strong> improved on yesterday\u2019s time by nearly half a second before crashing without consequences at turn one. He was able to quickly re-join the action and tried various chassis settings with his RC213V<\/strong>. Pedrosa<\/strong> also tried a number of setup options, improving his pace as the evening progressed. With approximately one hour remaining, both riders tried a new aerodynamic solution, using a new fairing with winglets.<\/p>\n

Marc rode 42 laps this evening, with his best time of 1\u201956.046 occurring on lap 4. Dani<\/strong> also completed a total of 42 laps, setting his quickest time of 1\u201955.857 on his final lap. Temperatures were similar to the first evening, with air and ground maximums of 23\u00b0 C.<\/p>\n

The test will conclude tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
