Repsol Honda rider Dani Pedrosa enjoyed another strong day at the Circuit of The Americas track in Austin.

The Spanish rider was blessed with fantastic weather, 10ºC warmer than yesterday, and slowly improving track conditions. Dani remained second fastest, just one tenth off his teammate. He worked on gearing and with rear suspension settings and set his fastest lap of 2'03.976 on lap 57 of 58, improving on his time of yesterday by over a second (2'05.047).

The team will be back on track tomorrow for the final day of testing.

Dani Pedrosa - 2nd - 2'03.976

"Today we continued to put in laps and I was also able to improve my cornering on some turns; I found some details that allowed me to run a better line on them. We had good conditions and were able to try some different gearing, plus a couple of shock absorbers that allowed us to gain a little more grip. We made the most of the second part of the day, in the afternoon, as the track was much better than in the morning. We are happy with how the second day went and hope to continue with the good work tomorrow"
