What to expect from Portimao WorldSBK test
Like at Jerez, the two-day Portimao test will be filled w🍌ith WorldSBK stars as they continue preparations for the 2꧙024 season.
After dominating the Jerez WorldSBK test, Nicolo Bulega is in action again at the Porti🍎mao test which has be👍en set-up by the Aruba.it Ducati team.
Alvaro Bautista, who struggled with injury at Je🅘rez, is also at Portima꧒o and set to continue preparations for yet another title defence.
The🌠 focus for Bautista is likely to be on the ballast of his bike after Ducati confirmed they have added a total of six kilos to his bike to meet the new minimum weight rules.
All five manufacturers will have their factory teams in action over the two days, which means Toprak Razgatlioglu and Jonathan Rea will agaꦬin be riding their BMW and Yamaha ma෴chines, respectively.
Talking of BMW, their test team of Sylvain Guintoli and Bradley S🙈mith will be riding for a second time after joining the action at Jerez.
Honda, who endured a difficult test at Jeಌrez will al🐻so be in action, as they search for solutions to their ongoing problems.
Plenty of satellite teams will be riding the Portimao circuit too, as Remy Gardner, Michael Ruben Rinaldi and Philipp Oettl have alrea🔯dy been out on track.
Portimao🧸 is the final two-day test before the official WorldSBK test next month at Phillip Isꦛland.
Track action begi🐼ns at 10am on both days and finishes at 5pm, local time.
