Pata Yamaha Official WorldSBK Team Concludes Successful Portimão Test

Pata Yamaha Official WorldSBK Team has concluded its first two-day test of 2016 successfully at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve in Portugal with both #alexlowes and #sylvainguintoli undertaking valuable work with their YZF-R1's.

Initially worried about the rehabilitation of his left shoulder, Lowes confidently set 116 laps over the past two days. While his normal aggressive style was restricted due to his less-than-perfect mobility, the track-time ensured he continued to progress with his new WorldSBK-spec Yamaha ahead of the championship's opening round next month.

Guintoli worked with his Pata Yamaha crew on a variety of settings-work including new Öhlins front forks, the new specification engine and electronics strategies, completing 90 laps of the rollercoaster circuit in the process.

Focusing on development for the first few rounds of competition rather than ultimate lap time, the Pata Yamaha Official WorldSBK Team now moves on to Spain's Circuito de Jerez for a further two-day test at the Andalucían track from Tuesday 26th January.
