Pedrosa danas najbrži,tako kažu novinari koji su štopali vrime jer Pedro vozi bez transpondera.

Crutchlow na ovom testiranju vozi ko blesav. Od mnogih , jedna prednja maska na Yamahi mi dobro izgleda . Aprilia da nema dvije ispušne grane od kojih se jedna jedva vidi , još sa onom kadom na donjem dijelu izgledala bi kao strujić.

We’ve seen Yamaha test rider Cal Crutchlow do the majority of his running with this aero package. It’s entirely new with it being different to what we had seen at the Valencia Test

The top wings appear to be very simple, with them almost being just a flat pane than sticks out from the fairing, sort of 2016-style. Google the 2016 M1 and you’ll see what we mean. The other difference is the sidepod wings. They’re updated too, with them appearing to be slightly bigger. Overall it’s hard to know if this aero package will provide more downforce or not, but with Yamaha appearing to have found a good dose of horsepower we imagine this aero package does provide more downforce than what they had before

The second setup we’ve seen isn’t really a different setup but more just a variation of the aero package in the previous image. You might have already spotted the difference, with the difference being that Yamaha have been doing some running without the sidepod wings fitted.

Obviously the downforce will be less without the sidepod wings and likely change the balance and feeling of the bike a little with the absence of the sidepods causing a change in where downwards pressure will be applied to the whole bike

Looking back at the photos from Valencia we can see already that the aero packages seen in Sepang are new.

This photo shows one of the Valencia aero packages. You can see it has a similar flat pane up top but then is supported underneath as the wings extends downwards and attaches to the fairing above the sidepod wing. And speaking of that sidepod wing, you can get a good look at the Valencia one here. The Valencia one is slightly bigger than the one we’ve seen in Sepang, with the top pane of the Valencia one having a larger surface area

The other aero seen in Valencia was this one that had a double layered top wing. It’s highly likely this was the highest downforce aero package of all the ones Yamaha have tried. With it not being seen so far in Sepang we can suspect that it maybe had too much downforce and now we’re seeing Yamaha chase something with a little more downforce than what they used for the 2022 season

It’ll be interesting to see which aero succeeds this setup as the face of the 2023 Yamaha M1

KTM brought this aero package to the Valencia Test and we only very briefly sat Brad Binder, Jack Miller and Pol Espargaro try it towards the end of the day. It was a small tweak from what we’d seen them use all season long and was possibly a first look at what we could expect them to bring for the start of 2023 as they begin their partnership with Red Bull Advanced Technologies

The updated Valencia package made the top set of wings marginally larger, with a general smoother approach to the lines it had as you followed the leading edge of the wings as they dropped away from the air intake. It also sat the wings further out in front of the air intake to give a slight ‘chin’ look. The other difference in that aero was the gap surrounding the air intake, a secondary air intake of sorts, used to feed cooling air to various other parts of the machine.

But the biggest difference was further down. While the sidepod wings may have appeared to stay the same, the noticeable addition of a ground effect side fairing had been put into place. You can see how its top edge lines up almost perfectly with the bottom of the sidepod wing. The ground effect side fairing bulges out and then slopes down to the bottom of the bike where there’s a small, and curved, fence there. It was the first time we’d seen something like this on the ground effect fairings, with the fence likely being there to create a barrier and channel the air better, strengthening the effect the ground effect fairing was having. Small tweaks but a clear guided by some knowledge behind the scenes and lots of wind tunnel time. But now we have an update of that aero package too, and there are even more tweaks to be seen

Firstly, let’s start with the top set of wings. They do appear to be roughly the same size, but some of the contours appear to have changed ever so slightly. Perhaps the biggest change is that the ‘chin’ effect seems to have gotten larger and now the leading edge of the wing sits further out in the front of the air intake than it did in Valencia

Two other things at the top. Firstly, the edges of the side fairing have been reprofiled again and now we see that there are no ‘shark tooth’ serrations on the edges of the front fairing at all. Secondly, we can see that th secondary air intake is now restricted to just at the top of the main intake.

It’s hard to tell if the sidepod wings are updated but we imagine they might be. It looks like they may be sticking out further forward, protruding forwards from the leading edge of the side fairings itself. Ducati do something similar with their sidepod wings. But the biggest change here is the ground effect side fairing. It’s grown in size with now the top edge of the ground effect area being above the bottom line of the sidepod wing. Also, the fence at the bottom of the side fairing is much larger and extends the full length from the front to the back.

The final thing is that the front mudguard is much larger and clearly more aero focused to guide as much air as smoothly as possible to the sidepod wings and side fairings

The big talking point of Honda’s 2022 machine, seen here at the Valencia Test, was that Honda had rotated their engine backwards is search of a bike that better used Michelin’s grippy rear tyre, one of the keys to winning in MotoGP nowadays. Initially it seemed like they had found the rear grip they had been searching for but it came at a cost, the cost of a lack of front end feel

In the pursuit of keeping their newfound rear grip and gaining the front end feeling they need, it seems Honda discovered that with this bike, they’d never be able to have both. We heard throughout the year that bigger changes were needed and in one interview, then Technical Manager Takeo Yokoyama said that Honda would explore a bike philosophy that tried to compile the strengths of their 2021 machine with those of their 2022 machine. A sort of halfway step. And it seems that halfway step involved rotating the engine backwards

To get the full picture, here’s the 2021 RC213V. What we want you to focus on here are the engine mount bolts that sit above and below the swingarm pivot in the middle. You’ll see that on the 2021 bike, they pretty much line up in one straight vertical line. This change drastically for 2022

The 2022 machine pitched the engine backwards in search of rear grip. You can see that change very clearly here with how the engine mount bolts have shifted, with the bottom one now protruding forwards in front of the swingarm pivot and the top one sitting further back behind the swingarm pivot

For 2023, this has changed again. But the change is much smaller, but still just as crucial

Now you can see that the bike Bradl has been riding has seen the engine mount bolts come back a little more towards what they were like in 2023. The bottom engine mount bolt doesn’t sit as far in front of the swingarm pivot as it did on the 2022 bike and the top one doesn’t sit as far back as it did on the 2022 bike.

It seems that Honda have pitched their engine slightly forwards compared to last year. To make it very clear, this change is not Honda going back to a bike they had previously. The engine mount bolts are in a much different position to what they were in 2021. What this change shows is Honda learning from their experience with the 2022 bike to move forward and build a better bike in 2023, not go back to what they had before. It’s another big and bold move by Honda, but one fuelled by the lessons learnt from the mistakes in 2022.

If this change gives the RC213V better front feeling and allows them to use the rear grip they so desperately wanted last season, Honda’s 2023 machine might just be their light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel
