The Team’s present goal is to get as close as possible to the top ten. Considering Ignite Pramac Racing Team rider Ben Spies’ physical conditions and Energy T.I. rider Andrea’s inexperience in this class, the obtained results can be considered satisfying.

During these three days several settings have been tried and the feeling with the bike is constantly improving thanks to continuous research lap after lap .

The team will return back on track in Jerez for the last testing session before the season starts on the 23, 24 and 25 of March.

Andrea Iannone – Energy T.I. Pramac Racing Team My apprenticeship continues, I am more constant and the feeling with the bike is improving day by day, nevertheless I have not tried the race simulation because we're still working on finding the best set-up. We have a lot to work on but I am very pleased with what has been achieved so far and what I could try. We'll certainly get to Jerez with more data to be developed. My goal right now is to get closer to Ducati’s Top Team riders.

Ben Spies – Ignite Pramac Racing Team I am not yet at full condition but considering the situation of three weeks ago I am satisfied with what has been done in this second phase of the winter tests. I could not ride the last hour of the day because of a small problem with the fork, but I have some more specific ideas about what changes should be made. I rode consistently focusing on the reactions of the bike in a variety of settings.
