Testy WSBK, Portimao: Alex Lowes najszybszy, deszcz zakłóca cały dzień
W Portugalii odbyły się dwudniowe testy World Superbike, ale tylko w poniedziałek zawodnicy mieli faktycznie możliwość zmierzenia czasów w optymalnych warunkach. We wtorek padający deszcz sprawił, że bardzo niewielu było chętnych do wyjazdu na tor. Najszybszy czas należał do Alexa Lowesa na Bimocie. Najbliższa runda – właśnie na Portimao – zaplanowana jest na 27-29 marca.
