 World Superbike report. Max Biaggi powers to a thrilling wonderful race 1 and gets the third step of the podium : -
After the green light the Roman champion keeps the position before starting to recover positions lap by lap.
His show starts when he passes Corser and Sykes, reaching the third place and immediately breaking with them, just 3 seconds behind the leaders. At 7 laps to go, Biaggi begins to recover on Bayliss and Kiyonari, at the last but one lap he reaches them but it is too late for passing.
In race 2, after some defensive lap, Biaggi ended in the run off area due to an attempt to avoid a rival. On returning to the track he started another great recovery, finishing the race in twelfth position. Ruben Xaus has been stopped by the fever which got higher during the night.
He did not take to the track at all, picking the wise choice to wait in the bed the journey back to Spain. In Superstock1000, Alex Polita grabs the 5th place after a poor start and a great attacking race which allowed him to collect meaningful points for the championship ranking where now he is 4th at 94 points, just 15 points from the leader.
MAX BIAGGI | Ducati 1098 RS | 3rd and 12th classified:
“I’m really satisfied with my result in race-1 which allowed me to finish on the podium for the third time in a row. The team have done an excellent work and I’ve tried to give my best; unfortunately in race-2 I did not take the corner in the right way and I ended on the run-off area, compromising my race. When I started again I was the last but one but anyway I powered to a good recovery which has ended in twelfth position”.
RUBEN XAUS | Ducati 1098 RS | Retired:
“Unfortunately I’m feeling very low. Riding the bike would have been an high risk. I’m not able now to take a Superbike to the limit. I hope to make up for the lost race in the next championship round at Donington after the holidays”.
ALEX POLITA | Ducati 1098R | 5th classified:
“I picked for a front rain tyre since the track was wet and due to the rain fallen before the start. I thought that the rain would have kept up to fall, but it wasn’t. So my choice was not the best one and I was not able to follow the pace of the rivals endowed with dry tyres. Anyhow the gap from the championship leader is still little”.
