Testing Update: Crutchlow Tries M1, Sofuoglu To Test Suter At Albacete

Preparations for next year are starting to get into gear, with testing for 2011 already underway. After wrapping up his World Superbike season, Cal Crutchlow got his first outing on Yamaha's MotoGP bike at the Fukuroi test track in Japan, as he got ready to move into the Monster Tech 3 Yamaha squad for 2011. The elements did not look kindly on Crutchlow, however, most of the test taking place in the wet, though the young Briton also got a few laps in under relatively dry conditions. Crutchlow will be hoping for better conditions at Valencia, for the first official outing on the Yamaha M1. He will not be alone, as the Valencia post-race test will also see Valentino Rossi's first outing on the Ducati and Casey Stoner's first test on the Honda.
2010 World Supersport champion Kenan Sofuoglu is also preparing for his move to Moto2 next year, by testing the Technomag Suter machine at Albacete in Spain on Monday. The Turkish rider will be competing in the last two races of the year, at Estoril and Valencia, before making a full-time switch for next season. Sofuoglu is believed to be close to a permanent deal with the Technomag squad for 2011, though several other teams have also shown an interest in the Turk.
