2024 Official Sepang MotoGP Test results - Day 3
Final lap times from Thursday’s third and last day of the Official 2024 Sepang MotoGP test
Marc
After a Shakedown - featuring test riders, Honda and Yamaha race riders, plus KTM rookie Pedro Acosta - three days of Official MotoGP testing at Sepang concludes on Thursday evening.
Pramac Ducati’s 2023 title runner-up Jorge Martin was fastest from Acosta on day one, before Ducati Lenovo’s Enea Bastianini moved to the top with a new all-time unofficial lap record of 1m 57.134s late on day two.
A 'cool', overcast start to day three helped produce the first ever 1m 56s two-wheeled laps of the Malaysian Grand Prix circuit by reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia, title runner-up Jorge Martin and then Gresini's Alex Marquez on the older GP23.
Enea Bastianini also joined the 1m 56s club shortly after 11am. With the temperature rising, teams then switched to testing with used tyres and some longer race simulation runs.
UPDATE - Average lap time during long runs today:
- di Giannantonio (Ducati) 1m 58.237s (over 10 laps)*
- Martin (Ducati) 1m 58.390s (over 10 laps)
- Bastianini (Ducati) 1m 58.437s (over 10 laps)
- Bagnaia (Ducati) 1m 58.457s (over 10 laps)
- A. Espargaro (Aprilia) 1m 58.499s (over 9 laps)

- M. Marquez (Ducati) 1m 58.556s (over 10 laps)*
- Binder (KTM) 1m 58.639s (over 9 laps)*
- Acosta (KTM) 1m 58.644s (over 10 laps)
- A. Marquez (Ducati) 1m 58.811s (over 10 laps)*
- Marini (Honda) 1m 59.083s (over 6 laps)
- Mir (Honda) 1m 59.234 (over 10 laps)
- Rins (Yamaha) 1m 59.288s (over 9 laps)*
- Zarco (Honda) 2m 0.079s (over 10 laps)
* Set late in the afternoon, cooler temps.
While Bagnaia and team-mate Enea Bastianini liked the new Ducati fairing on day two, Martin still preferred the older design. However Martin said he was able to make the new fairing work on the final day.
Two full-time riders were missing. Trackhouse Aprilia's Raul Fernandez was ruled out after a big highside early on the opening day while Pramac’s Franco Morbidelli will be absent from both the Sepang and Qatar tests after being knocked unconscious in a Superbike training accident at Portimao.
Morbidelli was replaced by Ducati test rider Michele Pirro and Fernandez by Aprilia test rider Lorenzo Savadori.
Track action took place from 10am to 6pm, followed by practice starts.
The final 2024 pre-season test takes place in Qatar from February 19-20…
