26 - Dani Pedrosa Fan Site

Dani Pedrosa and his team from Repsol Honda still experiencing some problems with the tyres and therefore they  shortened the Brno test -originally 2 days- and call it a day after eleven laps.

Pedrosa admitted that they have tried some different front tyres that Michelin brought for the test, but they finished after some laps because they couldn’t find any improvement.

Furthermore, Pedrosa said that using the pneumatic-valve engine wouldn’t be of much use since the tyres lacking anyway. ”We tested the tyres with my current [valve-spring] race bike, there was no point using the machine with the pneumatic-valve engine because the tyres weren’t working well enough,” said Pedrosa. “We have rescheduled this test at Misano, on the Monday after the San Marino GP.”
