Loweꦗs said: “I am really happy with today. Honestly, I have had so much fun riding the bike. After a tough end to the year, with injuries and not being able to finish the year like I wanted, it has been so positive to have a good test here. 

“Obviously the conditions in the winter in Jerez are good but I did my be🤪st ever lap around Jerez on race tyres, and quite a lot of fast laps. This was positive. 

“We also tried a lot of new parts, which was thanks to all the guys and Kawasaki for bringing new stufꦺf to try. 

“The target for January is to put all the piece💙s together to find the best package for next year. This was a really, really positive test.”

For Bassani, the second outing at Jerezℱ gave him the opportunity to adapt further to his new machine, after spending his first three seasons on a Paniga🍌le V4 R.

Bassani added: “We have just finished two days of testing and we tried a lot of things. We didn’t use an SCQ tyre, so we focused on the set-up of the bike and different th♈ings. 

“I am happy and we finished in a good way. We understood a good direction to go during the winter break. Test-by-test I started to fe🧜el really good with the bike. 

“It is not easy because it is completely different compared to mౠy previous one, but now I am starting to feel good. 

“I am also happy with the team and 🌌the work we did. Now we have some time to rest and the🍎n start to think about next year."
