Lap times from the second and final day of the January WorldSBK test at Portimao.
Nicolo Bulega was fastest on another wet day of testing, the Italian completing only 18 laps on the final day of the European section of this year's WorldSBK preseason.
Iker Lecuona made it a Ducati 1-2 at the top of the times, and he and Bulega were the only riders to lap below the 2:00 barrier.
Jake Dixon was third-fastest on the Honda, while fellow rookie Alberto Surra rounded out the top-five for Motocorsa.
Non-WorldSBK riders were on-track again on Thursday, including MotoAmerica's Cameron Beaubier, EWC's Team ERC BMW; BSB's Tommy Bridewell; and British Supersport rider Luke Stapleford, who was confirmed today for the Scars Racing Ducati team.
Alex Lowes and Axel Bassani were both present at the test, but Xavi Fores was the only Bimota rider to venture out on either day.
