Day one in Portimao
05-02-2010
Today was the first day of the three day test for Pat McDougall and East Coast Racing at Portimao. Rain this morning limited the time on track but dry sessions this afternoon enabled Pat and the team to "run in" and start to get to grips with their new Yamaha R6 Supersport bike. The bike ran well and Pat is feeling comfortable. Saturday and Sunday will bring opportunities to start to look for lap times.
