The Moto3 tests at the Red Bull Ring have concluded, with Ángel Piqueras emerging as the fastest rider. On Tuesday, the second and final day of testing saw 16 riders take to the track.
In the first session, Piqueras (Leopard Racing/Honda) set his best lap time at 1m40.181s, surpassing the previous day’s best time set by Daniel Holgado (Red Bull GasGas Tech3). Piqueras did not participate in the second and final session on Tuesday.
Despite this, no one was able to beat his time. David Almansa (Kopron Rivacold Snipers Team/Honda) came closest, just 0.068s behind. Adrián Fernández (Leopard Racing/Honda) also skipped the last session, dropping to third in the overall test standings, 0.070s slower than Piqueras.
The top five were rounded out by Filippo Farioli (SIC58 Squadra Corse/Honda) and Holgado, who did not improve on the time that had earned him the top spot on the first day of testing. Notably, the top two riders in the championship, David Alonso (CFMOTO Aspar) and Iván Ortolá (MT Helmets-MSi/KTM), did not participate in the action.
