After a very fast day-one which saw 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Michael Ruben Rinaldi, Rea and WorldSBK champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alvaro Bautista 🐲finish within a ﷽tenth of a second, the official lap record was obliterated on day-two.

Bautista set the pace early as he broke the lap record on race tyres, before Rea, Rinaldi and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Toprak Razgatlioglu joined him in doing so.

• ‘Happy to do it’ but Bautista plꦜays down stunning lap record at Por🌠timao
• Four riders un💃der Portimao lap record as Alvaro Bautista tops test

The official lap record, which still stands due to being set in an official W🧸orldSBK session, was set by Rea during last year’s Tissot Superpole. 

However, the Kawasaki rider’s time of 1:39.610s, was beaten by over half a second by himself and Bautista, with the latter finishing fasteꦗst. 

"To do 1’39.0s at Portimao is fast," s♊aid Rea. "Last year, with the Q tyre, we did a 1’39.6 and now, with th♈e race solutions, we’re even faster. 

"The track is i🌳n good shape, it’s always different conditions so it’s hard to compare to what we did last year. Everyone’s moving forward. 

"The pace at the front is incredibly fast. Inside the box, we’ve beꦏen working 🍌really well. I’m enjoying riding the bike. It’s very hard to gauge how much we’ve made a step forward because it’s not under race conditions with other riders, with 20 laps on the tyre. 

"Everyone in testing has a different s🐲chedule, let’s say. Some guys are going full time attack mode, some guys are working on long runs, 🌜some are testing parts. 

"Testing’s testing. I’m quite 💧excited now to park now and go to Australia in a few weeks and get the firstꦰ race of the year under my belt."

Despite the impressive💮 lap times which were close to the fastest race laps from MotoGP riders during last season’s Portuguese Grand Prix, Rea has not been focusing too much on actual lap time, but rather the improvements Kawasaki can and seemingly have been making this pre♐-season. 

Rea added: "What’s clear is that racing never ♚stands still. Everyone moves forward and I hope that’s the case in𝄹side the box. I think it’s the usual guys at the front. 

"What I’ve seen so far, and I haven’t looked very deep in the times, guys you mentioned are very fast and I’m happy to be amongst that. I don’t know if it was the conditions or time🔯 of day, but it was a strange feeling. 

"I used the really soft tyre at the end of the day. Temperatures maybe dropped but I didn’t have the same sensations that I ha♕d with the SCX. With me, the SCX tyre felt more stable and also the SC0; I was able to make many laps with th♋e SC0. 

"It was strange that the Q didn’t wo🍎rk. Normally we bolt the grippyജ tyres on the bike and we make a huge step so when they put it in, I was rolling my sleeves up.

"I could see the lap time with Bautista was almost the same. After the first sector, I thought it’s not happening today, it’s not going to work. I wanted to see 1’38s on my dash to make the fastest la🉐p here! We got close, but not close enough."
