The opening evening of the final MotoGP pre-season test in Qatar is underway at Losail, but as usual it's been a slow start since most riders are waiting for nightfall.
Lorenzo is due to complete his first 2019 laps, and ride in Repsol Honda livery for the first time, after missing Sepang due to a fractured scaphoid bone in his left wrist in a January training accident.
Testing takes place from 4pm to 10pm.
