The Monday test after Mugello was one of the most eagerly-awaited tests in recent history, at least until it was announced that none of the factories would be testing their 1000cc bikes at Mugello. And so the test transmogrified into a fairly humdrum 800 affair, with Honda the only factory present, and even them only having a new swingarm and a few electronics to test. The extra day at Mugello saw Casey Stoner take nearly a quarter of a second off his pole record, getting well into the low 1'47s. He was followed closely by Marco Simoncelli, while Andrea Dovizioso ended the test as 3rd fastest, but nearly a quarter of a second off Stoner's time.
Despite the relative lack of novelty, there were still some entertainment to be found in the test. Apart from an altercation between Casey Stoner and Karel Abraham - Abraham accusing Stoner of having barged into him, Stoner denying it emphatically, the collision a result of Abraham trying to get a tow from Stoner, and Stoner backing off the throttle to prevent him from doing so - the test saw the first public outing of the BMW-powered Suter machine being tested by Marc VDS, the return of Sylvain Guintoli on a Pramac Ducati, and the first outing of Moto2 star Andrea Iannone on a MotoGP bike.
