MotoGP Barcelona Test: LIVE UPDATES!

Marquez ends his first run as a factory Ducati rider in fifth place. Looks like he's on an in-lap now.

Enea Bastianini's out on track too for his first taste of the KTM. Slightly poetically, Marquez rode right by him on his first timed lap, which put him 18th.

Alex Marquez at the top now, by the way, ahead of Binder and Quartararo.

Marc Marquez has headed out for the first time on the factory Ducati. Pecco Bagnaia is out not far behind him.

Jack Miller representing the new Pramac Yamaha team.

Jorge Martin gave a big thumbs up after a first run on the Aprilia.

It's taken about an hour, but we finally have the new World Champion, Jorge Martin, out on track on the factory Aprilia.

Ogura and Aldeguer out there now, too, right together on-track. Times, as you might expect, a fair way off at the moment.

Pedro Acosta out now on the factory KTM. Joan Mir is also on-track in a black, unbranded helmet, possibly a change of helmet brand coming for the 2020 World Champion next year.

Marc Marquez has got changed into his all-red leathers. Might be only a few minutes from his first run on the factory Desmosedici GP24, although for now he's in the media room for photos in his new gear.

Luca Marini has crashed at turn five. He's totally fine, or fine enough to be completely fuming with himself, anyway.

Marini was fastest at the time he crashed, but Fabio Quartararo has now taken over at the top, and into the 1:40s on a 1:40.394.

Raul Fernandez now to the top on a 2024 RS-GP with 2023 aero, as he ran last weekend. He's 0.387s ahead of Oliveira.

Oliveira into the 1:41s with his latest lap, Marini joins him in that lap time bracket, 0.271 behind the Portuguese.

Oliveira fastest now, 1:42.313. Marini's first lap puts him immedaitely second.

Luca Marini out on track, too, on what seems to be the bike he raced on Sunday. 

Reports suggest that Honda will have a more radical evolution of the RC213V available to Marini and Joan Mir at an upcoming test in Jerez.

Oliveira carrying on his run for a few timed laps. He's second at the moment on a 1:43.998.

We have our first race rider out on track. Miguel Oliveira is getting his first taste of the YZR-M1.

Some further updates from Aprilia regarding personnel in the factory garage for 2025:

•⁠  ⁠Fabiano Sterlacchini, the new Technical Director, as announced during the Motegi GP.
•⁠  ⁠Daniele Romagnoli will debut as Crew Chief for Jorge Martín, while Francesco Venturato (formerly Performance Engineer for Maverick Viñales) will take on the role of Crew Chief for Marco Bezzecchi.
•⁠  ⁠On Jorge Martín's side, David Galacho will join as a mechanic and on Bezzecchi's side, Andrea Saggion will step in as a mechanic coming from the test team.

Savadori back in the pits now but Pirro is back out again.

Fermin Aldeguer looks like he's preparing to go out. He's sat in the Gresini box with his leathers on, at least.

There's a no. 72 Aprilia out on track. But it's not Marco Bezzecchi riding it: Lorenzo Savadori just giving Bezzecchi's bike a shakedown.

Fabio Di Giannantonio gave a short interview to Jack Appleyard on the international TV feed. He said:

"I’m good. For sure today I’m suffering a little bit because I see my bike on-track and I cannot touch it, I cannot ride it. But I’m super-good, honestly; the recovery is going well, even if there are just two weeks after I got the surgery, I’m already at a good point.

About his plan for today, Di Giannantonio added: "To catch and see every little step Ducati makes, to try to follow the development with them and try to understand already what they’ve done, what the bike can give to you. So, try to don’t lose any action that I can lose."
 

Michele Pirro's opening run has ended, his fastest time a 1:42.918.
