Jakub Smrz finally got some lap time and was just four tenths of second from Fabrizio, despite the fact that his Ducati doesn’t have ride-by-wire electronics as the Xerox Ducati and Althea Ducati’s have.
Davide Tardozzi hasn’t worked his black magic yet, because BMW had the highest test times on this last day of testing.
Ruben Xaus and Troy Corser up in the 1’35s, with Xaus, who is unhappy with the Nissin brakes he’s been using and wants to go back to Brembo, doing the same lap time as test rider Alex Hofmann on the Aprilia who did a total of 75 laps.
