The Algarve International Circuit<\/strong> will debut on the 2020 MotoGP World Championship<\/a> calendar as the final round of the series, November 20 to 22. Ahead of its debut, MotoGP test riders are running across two days to sample the new circuit on MotoGP machines.<\/p>\n

Stefan Bradl <\/strong>has previous experience of the track, having raced the Honda CBR1000RR in World Superbikes there in 2017 but today offered a first chance to ride the Honda RC213V at the Portuguese venue. The test offered Bradl a chance to refresh his memory of the track and begin to work on finding a base setting for the RC213V ahead of the season finale. <\/p>\n

\u00c1lex M\u00e1rquez <\/strong>joined Bradl on track, riding the Honda RC213V-S<\/strong>, to familiarize himself with the layout of the demanding circuit. The laps completed by \u00c1lex will help to give the rookie an initial direction to follow with bike setup and allow him to spend more time refining the setting of his Repsol Honda RC213V when the race weekend begins. After enjoying the dramatic elevation changes and a rollercoaster layout of the track, \u00c1lex now turns his attention back to round 10. <\/p>\n

Bradl will spend another day with the RC213V at the Portuguese track before heading to Le Mans for round 10 of the MotoGP World Championship. \u00c1lex is already on his way to Le Mans, motivated to continue adapting to the MotoGP class.<\/p>\n
