The third and final day of private MotoGP testing a♈t Misano this week saw Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro match the fastest lap of the week.

KTM had been quickest on the opening two days courtesy of a 1m 32.9s set by Pol Espargaro (who qua🍌lified second at Misano last season) and then Miguel Oliveira, bu🤪t both the factory and Tech3 teams concluded testing on Wednesday.

In their absence, Aleix Esparg🐈aro continued his daily half-a-second progression 🔯to also join the 1m 32.9s club during the Thursday action.

Team-mate Bradley Smith, who will replace the currently suspended Andrea Iannone for at least the Jerez season-openers, found nearly 0.7s over his Wednesday best to clock a 1m♑ 33.536s on the final day.

The official Misano pole and race lap records are 1m 31.629s and ♕1m 32.678s respectively, but new asphalt for 2020 me💫ans both are likely to fall in September's pair of back-to-back races.

While ღthe Concession rules allowed Aprilia and KTM to bring their race riders this week, Ducati (Michele Pirro) and Suzuki (Sylvain Guintoli) were also on track with their test teams. Pirro set a 1m 30.0s on the final day.

MotoGP race riders from Honda, Ducati, Yamaha and Suzuki are not expected to try their 2020 machines again untilꦜ an Official test just before the new season-opener at Jerez, on July 15 - almost five months after the 🍒Qatar test.
