Jorge Lorenzo On Top Of Mugello Test

Yamaha's Jorge
Lorenzo was the fastest rider around the track during the first
test for the upcoming MotoGP event at Mugello, reports Cycle
News.
The Spanish rider is on top of the point standings once again after
Casey Stoner
crashed during the German GP last week. Lorenzo also found himself
at the top of the leaderboards when Friday testing was all
finished, with a fastest lap time of 1:48.076.
"I'm really happy because from the beginning we've been quite
fast," Lorenzo told the news source. "We haven't had to make many
changes to the bike, the feeling is great with the track and it's
working well. I feel good with the suspension, throttle and
braking. Everything seems quite clear, we have to work on some
small details but we've made an excellent beginning."
Lorenzo's time just barely beat Dani Pedrosa
of Honda, who clocked in with 1:48.107. Fresh off his first win of
the season in Germany and the news that his contract his been
extended with Honda, Pedrosa will be looking to challenge his
countrymen at the Italian Grand Prix this weekend.
It wasn't a great test for Casey Stoner, the Australian Honda rider
who is retiring at the end of this year. Continuing to deal with
the chatter problems that plagued his bike, Stoner only had the
sixth-best time of the day, falling behind Nicky
Hayden, Hector
Barbera and Andrea
Dovizioso.
