Chaz Davies and the ParkinGo team were caught testing an Aprilia superbike. Given the recent rules changes with a weight increase for the twins, they may be getting cold feet with Ducati.

Camier and Hopkins signed for Crescent - PD tweeted they are off testing with Camier tommorow and as Hopkins fingers still bad theyve drafted in Alistair Seeley for the other bike for testing.

It does shock me the wee wizard Seeley cant pick up a decent BSB ride, or even WSS. He's a class rider.
