Pre-2024 Jerez WorldSBK Test results - Tuesday

• GALLERY: Rea on a Yamaha, Iannone on a Ducati, Bassani at Kawasaki...

Tuesday's test in Jerez was the first time we saw some of WorldSBK's major riders on their 2024 bikes, wearing their new colours.

Jonathan Rea was testing his Yamaha, Andrea Iannone was back in action on a Ducati, Axel Bassani was a factory rider for the first time...

Toprak Razgatlioglu was notably not testing his 2024 BMW because Yamaha insist he must "respect" a contract that runs until the end of November.

Rain curtailed the first of two days of testing in Jerez, meaning the morning's results became final.

Remy Gardner went fastest, clocking the sole 1’39s lap as rain began to fall.

Jonathan Rea crashed his Yamaha for the first time at Turn 13 when he touched a wet patch. But, he was still able to go fourth-fastest on his debut with his new machine.

Alvaro Bautista crashed, bringing out red flags briefly, at Turn 13 too. He was okay and his bike was pushed back to the pits.

MotoGP test riders were also in action on Tuesday at Jerez - Michele Pirro (Ducati), Lorenzo Savadori (Aprilia) and Stefan Bradl (Honda).
