TAKA ENJOYS PRODUCTIVE TEST SESSION AT SEPANG

The first official pre-season test ahead of the 2022 MotoGP World Championship wrapped up at a typically humid Sepang on Sunday. The two-day session at the Sepang International Circuit provided the premier class teams with a crucial chance to fine-tune their machinery for the new season with LCR Honda IDEMITSU rider Takaaki Nakagami putting the revamped RC213V through its paces.

The Japanese star was able to amass lots of useful data as he clocked up over 100 laps across the two days, 62 on Saturday and 41 on Sunday when rain interrupted the riders in the afternoon. Taka looked comfortable on the 2022 prototype as he continued working for the duration of both sessions, finishing in 12^th fastest on the timesheets on day one and 13^th on day two.
