The GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team returned to action with a two-day test on 11th-12th May at Misano World Circuit \u2018Marco Simoncelli\u2019, Italy, to prepare for the upcoming 2023 FIM Superbike World Championship rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique Aegerter and Remy Gardner faced different weather conditions across the two days, with almost the whole Superbike field attending the WorldSBK Supported Test in Misano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With track open from 09:00 to 18:00 (including a lunch break from 13:00 to 14:00), on Day 1 the GYTR GRT Yamaha pair were able to ride on dry tarmac for most of the time, eventually improving their feelings on the Yamaha R1 machine acquiring new helpful data for the upcoming rounds. Unfortunately, a downpour with one hour and half to go forced the riders to stop before prematurely. The #77 completed 85 laps, recording a 1\u201934.807, while his Australian teammate finished with five more, clocking a 1\u201934.853.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the second day, Aegerter and Gardner encountered different conditions in the morning. Indeed, a rainstorm at 10:00 obliged both riders on changing their plans. Thereby, the #77 and #87 kept still testing going out on wet tyres, going on to run some laps on soaked conditions, which was still important for the team to gain new data. Afterwards, in the afternoon the track was drying up and the GYTR GRT Yamaha could ride on slick tyres, kept working on getting the most out of their machines. Unluckily, rain fell again with two hours left, putting the final word on the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique Aegerter (1\u201934.807, 136 laps)
<\/strong>\u201cIt\u2019s always nice to be testing, especially here in Misano where we\u2019ll race in a few weeks. The conditions and the circuit are very different from Barcelona, so it was cool to test in a different scenario. We enjoyed a bit of dry asphalt and we tried to improve our feelings, plus we were able to ride on wet tarmac too to gain more data. It\u2019s time to recharge ourselves now and getting ready for the next round.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remy Gardner (1\u201934.853, 147 laps)
<\/strong>\u201cWe had two good days here in Misano, luckily we managed to enjoy some dry tarmac and we actually found something good for the next rounds. Unfortunately we missed a bit of track time due to rain but we eventually got the chance to ride on damp asphalt which could be helpful for the future. Now let\u2019s head to the next race, starting from Misano where we\u2019re confident we can have a good weekend.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
