We currently have a rare Jonathan Rea 1-2 at the moment. His 1:54.433 is still the fastest time of the day so far, but he's backed it up with a 1:54.719 on his second bike to lock out the top two positions for the moment.
10:54
Jonathan Rea to the top now on a 1:54.433, half-a-second ahead of Yari Montella - the rookie's first outing on a Superbike on the wet.
10:40
While the conditions aren't improving, the lap times have. Axel Bassani is now fastest on a 1:55.228.
10:37
Well, it's certainly not in between conditions anymore!

Locatelli had gone out on wets and set a 1:59.213, but has crashed at turn one on his second flying lap.
10:24
Some more riders have headed out now - Jonathan Rea, Andrea Locatelli, and Garrett Gerloff, but it's still Reiterberger fastest for now with that 1:57.601.
09:59
We finally have our first times on the board, with both BMW test riders heading out. Markus Reiterberger is fastest for the moment on a 1:57.601, and Sylvain Guintoli is second-fastest on a 2:01.707.
So, just the 20 or so seconds off the pace of yesterday's dry weather running.
09:23
We're still without a time on the board yet this morning. Track conditions are in between wet and dry, meaning no one wants to go out and waste tyres and risk a crash in unrepresentative conditions.
09:03
The session has just gone green in Jerez, but with conditions fairly fresh it might take a few minutes for most of the riders to begin filtering out.
09:01
Welcome back to the Jerez WorldSBK test, the first of the 2025 calendar year, for the second and final day of action at the Andalusian venue.
Nicolo Bulega was fastest on day one, ahead of Ansdrea Iannone and Scott Redding.
