The former MotoAmerica rider has enjoyed great success in WorldSBK over the last year, and looks to be pushing on in 2021 with another ♛impressive two days of testing in Catalunya. 

Gerloff finished both days of running third fastest behind only Jonathan Rea twice, Leon Haslam on day-one and Scott Redding on day▨-two. 

The GRT Yamaha rider led for most of the second day and was onl𒐪y pipped in the final thirty minutes by Rea and Redding. 

Unlike his rookie season🉐, Gerloff will have the added advantage of circuit familiarity going i♐nto his second season as the calendar is very similar to that of 2020. 

Speaking after his impressive showing at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Gerloff said: "I really like this track, the new layout of Tu🍌rn 10 - modified over the winter – gives it a nice flow. 

"I feel very good with my Ya⭕maha R1 and we have collected a lot of data th🍸at will be useful for us in the future. 

"I am very happy because I feel strong both on the single lap and when it comes to the race pace. See 🌼you in Ara🔜gon."

Gerloff was on tr♏ack for the second time in three weeks after an earlier Misano test alongside the 🔯Factory Yamaha and Ducati team’s.

But these two days of Official testing were a good opportunity to find out w🌠here riders and teams st𒉰and going into the new campaign with a full grid involved.
