Following's Sunday's Spanish MotoGP, riders and teams have returned to Jerez for a day of Official testing.

Rins stopped testing in the early afternoon while on top of the timesheets, with Vinales - who had been fastest in the morning - moving back on top just after 4pm.

Rins and Suzuki team-mate Mir spent part of the day trying the 2022 engine prototype first seen in the Qatar Test as well as settings for the upcoming races.

Fabio Quartararo is missing the test as he undergoes a medical check following Sunday's arm pump problems, which saw him drop from the race lead to 13th place.

Testing began at 10am and concludes at 6pm…
