Estoril Test, Day 2 – Laptimes 125cc

The Estoril test ended for the 125cc class in what can now almost be called normal order with Bancaja Aspar rider Julian Simon leading the pack by over a second and almost breaking the lap record. Simon has been dominating every single test in the preseason so far and looks like a strong contender for the title this season. Fellow Aspar riders Bradley Smith and Sergio Gadea went down the order a bit compared to yesterday, but can now already prepare for the official IRTA test in Jerez next week.
