2011 Valencia Post-Race Overall Test Times: Pedrosa Fastest, but Morales Improves By 3 Seconds

For a complete picture of the times from the two days of testing, below are comparisons for all riders from both days of testing. The track improved a lot during the second day of testing, and everyone who rode both days set their fastest time on Wednesday, the second day of the test.

Overall times:

Rider improvements from day 1 to day 2

One of the more interesting comparisons to make is in terms of who improved most during the test. Though the Repsol Honda riders did well, improving their times by over a third of a second, it was the Yamahas that made the biggest step forward of the factory bikes, Ben Spies picking up nearly nine-tenths of a second, Cal Crutchlow going over 1.1 seconds faster on Wednesday than he had done on Tuesday. Most of the Ducatis were firmly in the middle, gaining about half a second over the previous day.

Biggest improvement of the test came from Carmelo Morales on the BMW Suter run by Laglisse. Morales picked up over three seconds between the first and the second day, down in part to his getting a better handle on the Bridgestone tires.
