MotoGP riders get their final track time of 2018 in the form of a two-day official test at Jerez this week.
The test, which takes place on Wednesday and Thursday at the Spanish Grand Prix venue, marks the last opportunity for track time ahead of the winter test ban, which runs until the opening 2019 test at Sepang in February.
Cal Crutchlow (injured) and Aleix Espargaro (sickness) are the only 2019 race riders not present, while Bradley Smith (Aprilia), Matteo Baiocco (Aprilia), Sylvain Guintoli (Suzuki) and Alvaro Bautista (Ducati) are expected on track as test riders.
