Thailand MotoGP test times - Saturday (Final)
Saturday marked day two of MotoGP's debut test in Thailand.
The outing is primarily to prepare for October's inaugural Thai MotoGP by offering the chance to gather data for the teams, check the facilities and especially evaluate tyres for Michelin.
Malaysian Hafizh Syahrin is riding his first MotoGP laps for Monster Yamaha Tech3 in what is effectively a final audition for the 2018 race seat vacated by Jonas Folger.
KTM's Pol Espargaro is absent due to injuries at the previous Sepang test.
