Catalunya MotoGP Test: Electronics and rear suspension worked on by Mir

Joan Mir finished the one-day Catalunya MotoGP test fourth quickest for Suzuki, but rem𓄧ained without any significant upda🅘tes to his GSX-RR.
With Alex Rins sidelined due to his bicycle crash before the Catalunya race weekend be꧑gan, Mir was joined by Suzuki test rider Sylvain Guintoli for the one-day test.
"It༺’s been a good day of testing, we didn’t have a lot of things to try but we worked on geometry 🐽settings, things like my riding position on the bike, and electronics and it was all positive,” said Mir.
"I also worked a little bit on rear suspension and the rear shock. I was able to give important feedback and information to the team about a few areas, and now they will w🍌ork on all of that while looking at the data.
"I’m happy with what’s been done but it’s been a tiring couple of weeks and I’m ready to ♓go home and start my preparations for Ge🦩rmany."
Mir secured a solid fifth place finish during the Gran✅d Prix on Sunday, but was then elevated into fourth after Fabio Quartararo’s late penalty.
For Guintoli, this was his first time on the bike since pre-season testing ๊in Qatar, as he compared different swingarms for the Japanese manufacturer.
Guintoli added: "This Catalan test has been a real pleasuꦬre for me, I haven’t ridden the GSX-RR since the test in Qatar and it was so nice to be back with it again.
"My feeling was really good today, I was a bit worried that after so long off the bike and with everybody else fresh from racing, that I would get thrash𒅌ed in terms of lap times!
"But in fact I had very good feedback from the bike and the tyres, and I was able to ꧙complete the day’s programme really well with 72 laps completed and a really solid test.
"I did some comparisons and worked on a wide variety of things, including the s🦹wingarm. Now I’m going to race in the Le Mans 24hrs and riding the GP bike today has got me fired up for that."
