SBK 2009 - Losail Superpole Highlights

WSBK come again in their second event of this season. This time , held on Losail track.
After had a good time at qualigying and got a bad luck at race session, Aprilia make it well again. Proven that they have a sesious target in WSBK. Aprilia rider Max Biaggi make it 3rd place from 28 rider position. And , looks like this season will be YAMAHA season when this team again make a good achievement. Ben Spies from Yamaha Team make a surprise again when he make the fastest lap 1'58.886 with his Yamaha R1 just a second less than Max Biaggi who ride his Aprilia RSV4.

However, not all team make it nice. Maybe a bad race for Alstare Suzuki when they cant even be in top 5 or top 10 ranking. After qualifying session, the best position from this team is 16th place . No 71 rider, Kagayama from JAPAN with Suzuki GSX-R 1000 K9 make his best lap 2'00.264 and followed by his team mate no 76 Neukirchner from GERMAN 2'00.345.
They need quick inspection to solve this problem.


Again, Kawasaki cant give their good time after stand the last 3 position. Hope to see them in top 10 to give more excitement on WSBK. Below, is full result of 2nd qualifying session :
