For this second day and despite his hand's injury Casey Stoner made an impressive lap time, but as you could read it earlier, the aussie can't do a long run and today was only able to do 29 laps.
His new team mate Nicky Hayden was also in quite difficult conditions. The Kentucky kid admitted that the new hard compound of the rear Bridgestone tyre was a bit difficult to warm and did not gave him the best feeling. The bike is pumping to much for him.

On the side of Honda HRC, Dani Pedrosa has spent the day testing chassis and his lap time was much better than yesterday. But the big news of the day comes also from his box. Dani Pedrosa has annouced that this second day was his last day of testing in Sepang.
Last december the spaniard underwent surgery to his injured knee (Philip Island 2008). Pedrosa said that the pain could not allow him to do more than 5 laps straight so it will be impossible for him to try race simulations tomorrow.

For Valentino Rossi, this day went well. The World Champion said that the new electronics tested on the Yamaha M1 worked well and allowed him to open the throttle earlier (is that really possible...). His team mate Lorenzo is for his part in a difficult position with Bridgestone tyres. The Rookie of last year has a lot of difficulties to be fast on his nes tyres.

In the Yamaha Tech 3 team, the attention was focused on James Toseland's confidence. The briton who suffered a massive crash yesterday. But the double WSBK champion could only make 36 laps and finished the day at the last position.

At the beginning, in 2001, www.motorcyclists-online.com was an exclusive French Motorcycle website. Now, since September 2005, it has become bilingual: English speaking people are welcome !
We do believe, at www.motorcyclists-online.com, that linguistic boundaries are not a problem when we share the same passion for bikes.
We are currently working on translating all articles and contents, to finish the UK/US version. You will certainly notice some bugs or translation errors: please do not hesitate to advise us by e-mail, Private Message or by posting in the Forum. Your help is welcome !
For the moment, articles which haven’t been human translated are automatically machine translated, which I must confess is not really famous, but faster than human translators.
