It is a chilly winter right now and it is a whole other story in the hot and humid Malaysia as the riders continue to test their machine and work towards preparing the opening race in Qatar in about one month.

From the time recorded, it is still very close to determine who will dominate the 2012 season. But Repsol Honda has been pretty successful with their test so far in terms of lap time.

Still a lot of improvements may come in the period of one month before the teams head to Qatar for their first real test.
