Repsol Honda’s Dani Pedrosa continued Sepang domination in this afternoon’s second free practice with a bevy of Honda RC212V’s in the top five spots.

820s off pace and losing a big amount of time in the last sector of the Malaysian track.
Andrea Dovizioso was third and 1.
4s adrift from his Repsol Honda team mate, while Gresini duo Marco Simoncelli and Hiroshi Aoyama completed the top five.
Colin Edwards brought his satellite Yamaha Tech3 into sixth ahead of Alvaro Bautista, Randy De Puniet who was still the best Ducati rider of the day, while aching Ben Spies was ninth.
Karel Abraham rounded out the top ten ahead of factory riders Nicky Hayden (11th) and a very lowly Valentino Rossi in 13th with Loris Capirossi on the Pramac Ducati GP11 separating the two.
John Hopkins was 14th, while substitute rider Katsuyuki Nakasuga was last and he suffered another crash, but this time at turn 13.
