Jerez day two, affected by rain

The second day of testing in Jerez was shortened by rain and mixed weather conditions, but proved an opportunity to test the new 1000cc bikes in these circumstances.

Repsol Honda rider Dani Pedrosa was the first rider out on the wet track when it began to rain consistently and did a long run of 20 laps. Dani, who tested the new regulation rear light for use in rain conditions, recorded a lap time of 1'49.822, the fastest rider in the rain.

Team mate, Casey Stoner began a little later, the track was still wet, but the rain not heavy enough to carry out a worthwhile wet test, he completed just three laps and chose to stop and wait and see if the conditions are better tomorrow. Casey's best lap time was 1'51.856.
