Progress continued for Bogdanka PTR Honda during a successful visit to the MotorLand Aragon circuit in Spain.

James Ellison and Pawel Szkopek took full advantage of the dry weather. The pair completed a substantial amount of work and left Spain well pleased with the outcome of their visit, despite the low temperatures.

The duo were joined by the team’s third rider, Marcin Walkowiak, who will compete in the Superstock 1000 FIM Cup onboard PTR prepared Honda CBR1000RR. The 20-year-old Pole was extremely happy after quickly getting up to speed on his new bike.

James Ellison:

“It was a good test. After reconfirming that the setup from Portimao was a way to go yesterday, today we’ve done some tyre testing, gathered a lot of information and just tried to go faster again, which we did, so I’m happy. Our bike works really well so I can’t wait for Australia.”

Pawel Szkopek:

“I’m leaving Aragon with a big smile as I’m even more comfortable with the bike and working with my new crew. I really enjoyed myself and did plenty of laps despite the cold weather. I’ve kept improving with every lap.”

Marcin Walkowiak:

“It was very exciting to try my new bike for the first time. It has a different feeling compared to last year’s machine, but I got up to speed quickly and managed to get a good setting.”

Simon Buckmaster:

“It was another very positive test for all three riders. James and Pawel put in impressive performances on a track which was new to them - and so did Marcin. The team is working really well together and everything is moving forward.”

Michael Piasecki:

“It was cold but most importantly it was dry for both days. All three riders kept improving and did their fastest times in the last session which shows that we’re making strides forward.”
Be right back. I am going to go find myself, and if I leave before I get back, make sure to tell me !! -
