In the final minutes of Monday's Barcelona test, a new fairing was seen leaving the Yamaha garage, with integrated wings on its side. Unlike that seen on other occasions though, this one has air vents along the side.

Vinales carried out a brief test and spoke positively about it: "With respect to the previous on, this makes the bike more agile, less strenuous, something that you really notice at fast tracks like Mugello" explained Maverick.

Rossi didn't have chance to test it. "I didn't have time, but I'll definitely do that tomorrow", assured Valentino who will remain with his team, the Suzukis and the KTMs for another day of testing at Montmelò on Tuesday.
