I went up to the Almeria test circuit this morning as a friend of mine had said that there were a few WSB riders up there this week.
Scott Redding who is riding for the Bonovo Action BMW team was there as well as Remy Gardner who is with GRT Yamaha.
Although both were not riding the bikes that they will be using this year. The difference in speed between the pair of them and most of others out at the same time certainly showed how good they are, but Redding's bike was pulling a lot on him on the straight bits !!
I had a chat to both of them as there were no people about except the few people that were helping them and no big teams and trucks. Remy was virtually doing all of the work himself and Scott had turned up in a van with his helper.
What did surprise me was Remy spoke absolutely perfect Spanish !
Earlier in the week Pedro Acosta was riding down here as well but I don't know what bike he was on, and I'm not sure what bike he will be actually riding when he moves up to the top MotoGP class this year. Whatever it will be another year of excitement, and to me is better to watch than F1. This is both of them having a bit of fun !!
