MotoGP - 2007 Jerez Test

Well, the first day was nothing spectacular.

The sky has been leaking on Jerez on and off over the past few days, and today was no exception. So a few got reasonable performances, but the likes of World Champion Nicky Hayden was back in 19th, Rossi in 13th and Edwards in 11th. Hayden was three seconds off the lead, set by Marco Melandri, on his Honda.

If the weather improves, hopefully we will see some closer performances, especially on the final day. This is where the racers go all out for 40minutes to attempt to win a new BMW.

The Yamaha's of Rossi and Edwards were both coloured Yamaha Blue, and the team was entered under the title "Yamaha Factory Racing", so any sponsorship deal must be still under negotiation.
