The three-day test (which runs from Friday to Sunday) will see Johann Zarco's debut outing for Ducati as well as the first MotoGP laps since shoulder surgery for reigning world champion Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda)🅺 and Takaaki Nakagami (LCR Honda).

Tech 3's Miguel Oliveira, the other rider to undergo a recent shoulder operation, was present fo☂r the Shakedown test🍌, where KTM riders were quickest over all three days courtesy of Dani Pedrosa and Pol Espargaro. 

Espargaro set the best lap with 𒁃a 1m 59.444s, but last year's Sepang test saw a new unofficial lap record of 1m 58.239s by D🌠ucati's Danilo Petrucci.

Will the new Michelin rear tyre combined with the latest bike developments produce the first-ev🍰er 🌞1m 57s lap?
