FPR's second day of testing alongside other factory World Superbike teams at the desert circuit in Doha, Qatar, saw its riders Steve Martin and Craig Jones have a day of mixed fortunes.
Jones was unable to ride for the first half of the day due to illness with a fever and stomach bug, although following a trip to the medical centre for treatment he returned to action for the afternoon's running and completed over thirty laps.
Martin was also feeling a little weak after his first day back on a bike following surgery just six weeks ago.
He completed almost forty laps but had a steady day of running for development purposes rather than pushing himself to his full potential.
2:03.10 and 2:02.84 respectively.
Martin said: "I've felt pretty weak today so have just concentrated on steadily evaluating the development parts.
"Despite not pushing to anywhere close to my limit I was still able to improve my lap time and so I'm looking forward to more of the same progress on day three."
