A two-day Superbike test scheduled to take place this week has now been cancelled due to wet weather.
Team HRC was looking forward to testing at the Jerez de la Frontera circuit in Spain yesterday and today. But the weather conditions have unfortunately put paid to its plans.
Rain and a constantly wet track meant that there was little point in sending Alvaro Bautista. And Leon Haslam out with their CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP.
Team HRC waited until lunchtime today to see if conditions might improve enough to make testing worthwhile.
But although it eventually stopped raining, the track remained wet. Temperatures not particularly cold but also not warm enough to allow the surface to dry quickly.
In an attempt to fully exploit the annual allocation of test days, the session has therefore been rescheduled. And Team HRC will return to the Andalusian circuit on 27-28 January, ready to complete the work it had planned for this week.
