MotoGP: Qatar test, the rain "stops" the third day of testing
The day was wasted due to the rain, rare but not impossible in the desert
MotoGP 2015 #QatarTest – The third and final day of MotoGP testing at Losail did not take place due to rain. The first drops fell on the asphalt in the early afternoon and as the hours passed the rain intensified. None of the drivers took to the track also because in Qatar there is no possibility of using rain tires due to the artificial lighting of the track and the reflections that would be created on the wet asphalt.
Almost all the teams had a long run planned, or in any case would have liked to make changes to try to improve their performances. Unfortunately this was not possible and the next "challenge" will take place directly in Qatar on March 26th, the first day of testing for the inaugural 2015 MotoGP race.
Below are the links to the reports from the first and second day of testing:

It's raining in Qatar, and there's an eclipse, haha it's the end of the world.
Too bad... it would have been better to still have that day to actually see everyone make full use of the material available.
Since the race will be held there they could also give him an extra day on Thursday for example, since much of the material is there now, the teams will probably all stay there, why not let him make up for the lost day...
There is no shortage of money in Qatar to pay the staff an extra day... which was lost today anyway...
Come on, it's not long now!!!
Seeing the results of the tests, a great Championship awaits us, let's hope...
Ducati did a super job, let's hope it's involved too.
I didn't expect such a fast Ducati, well done.
Suzuki ditto, they started off on the right foot, we will then have to see if they will be able to improve each race....
Come on, let's go!!!!
