Catalunya IRTA test times - Sunday/Overall.

Full MotoGP test times from Sunday's third and final day of the first official MotoGP IRTA test session of 2006, held at the Circuit de Catalunya, Barcelona.

Due to the arrival of poor weather, the best Sunday lap times were nearly all set in the morning session - before the BMW M Award and the following afternoon session. The only exception was world champion Valentino Rossi, who didn't get to set a dry time before rain arrived.

The fastest Sunday test times and the best overall lap times over the three days can be seen below.

Next Friday, the second and last three-day IRTA test before the start of the 2006 season will take place at Jerez, venue for the season-opening Spanish Grand Prix on March 26.
