PETALING JAYA: It’s all about the bike. At the end of the three-day Moto2 and Moto3 tests on Thursday, none of the Malaysian riders managed to clock impressive times at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Valencia.

Dogged by problems, including delay in engine shipment to using the 2013 bike, Moto2 riders Hafizh Syahrin Abdullah and Azlan Shah Kamaruzaman and Moto3 riders Amirul Hafiq Azmi and Zulfahmi Khairuddin finished the test in the bottom half of the table.
