Repsol Honda Team kick off 2019 season with the first of two days of testing at Valencia

Fresh from completing the 2018 Triple Crown at the season finale in #valencia, the Repsol Honda Team was back on track at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit today with its new line-up, which sees Jorge Lorenzo joining the squad alongside World Champion #marcmarquez.

After five days of almost uninterrupted rain showers, the sun finally made its appearance at #valencia today, but it took the whole morning for the asphalt to dry enough to offer good conditions for proper testing.

Lorenzo took to the track around 1 pm, #marcmarquez a few minutes later, and they continued until the rain again put a stop to the action around 3:30.

Marc was immediately on the pace, finishing the day second-fastest with a best time of 1’31.718” after completing 25 laps. Jorge completed 30 laps, with a best time of 1’32.959”, 18th overall on the day.
