The 2012 machines are slowly starting to emerge. After Ducati debuted their 2012 Desmosedici in a private test at Jerez back in early April, today, it was the turn of Honda to hand their 2012 machine over to their factory riders. Casey Stoner took the machine out most of the day's testing, after a quick shakedown by Honda's test rider Shinichi Itoh. Dani Pedrosa had been scheduled to ride the bike on Wednesday, but as the Spaniard broke his collarbone in the crash between himself and Marco Simoncelli, Pedrosa is unable to test the 2012 machine. Based on the data from the test and the weather for tomorrow - thunderstorms are forecast for Wednesday afternoon at Jerez de la Frontera - HRC will decide whether to use another one of the 8 days testing allowed during the season and send Stoner back out, or wait for a later date (and better weather) and give Pedrosa some time on the bike.
