Test dates for the 2019 season have been announced, reduced by one compared with last year but with three extra days at Sepang, described as a “shakedown”, three days before the official session at the Malaysian circuit.
As well as the two days at Valencia on November 20-21, after the final race of 2018, there is an outing at Jerez on November 28-29 before the winter shut-down.
Sepang hosts the shakedown from February 1-3 and three days of testing February 6-8; then the final test at Qatar on February 23-25.
The smaller classes will test alongside MotoE at Jerez on November 23-25; then at the same track on February 20-22; then Qatar, March 1-3.
