Aprilia coming out on top on day one of testing is a sign you can't ignore. With absolute power dropping on the 850cc bikes, the fight comes down to how much you can gain in cornering and turning. Aprilia's cornering ability was always their weapon. Márquez's crash, too, is essentially proof of him physically probing where the limit sits.

Marquez crashed again, probably right in the middle of exploring the new tire's limits.

If it was just a minor crash, that's fine, no need to push too hard in testing as long as they get useful data.

Michelin to Pirelli, once tires change the whole machine setup basically has to be retrained.

Does 850cc mean the displacement goes down from what it is now?

It's currently 1000cc, so this is a 150cc cut. Should mean less power in the direction of safety.

Aprilia topping the first test, can I get my hopes up for next season?

Getting excited over day-one times is jumping the gun, it all depends on conditions.
