It is assumed that Stoner,🅘 who was last on track for Ducati at Barcelona in May, will also get to try the new 'wing fairing' forไ the first time.

Ducati's Andrea Dovizioso is currently tied at the top of the MotoGP&n💦bsp;standings with Honda's Marc Marquez heading into this wee✃kend's Aragon round.

The Valencia test could thus not only help generally for the upcoming races, but also provide a base set-up for what might turn out to be a final round title s💎howdown at the same circuit on November 12.

Test rider Michele Pirro, fifth as a wild-card🍌 in the recent Misano round, will ride at Valencia on Tuesday.

Should Stoner - who won Ducati's only MotoGP title to date in 2007 - not test again in 2017, he is next expected on trac𒆙k at Sepang in January, ahead of the official test.
