Be first to comment this story

James Toselan, race 1 winner and championship leader

Bad luck for some of Championship pretenders today brought unpredictable results in both Superbike races. James Toseland has won Superbike Race 1 at Donington Park after Troy Bayliss crashed out of the race while leading on lap 4.

Troy Corser was second after starting 8th on the grid and picking his way through the field in the opening laps. Biaggi made his way to 3rd place after putting on a charge in the second half of the race and threatening to catch Corser. Haga was fourth, Lanzi was fifth after Xaus crashed on the penultimate lap and Nieto was sixth.

Bayliss has been taken to hospital with an injured hand and is expected to miss race 2.

Race 2 - Donington Park
Noriyuki Haga has won World Superbike race 2 at Donington Park after passing Max Biaggi on the last corner of the last lap of the race. Troy Corser was third, Reuben Xaus fourth, Lorenzo Lanzi fifth and Regis Laconi sixth.

James Toseland passed Haga to take the lead on the first lap but then suffered a suspected mechanical problem while dicing with Corser and Haga and was forced to pull out of the race.

Max Biaggi caught Haga and Corser, taking the lead on lap 14 and staying in front until he made his only mistake of the race, running wide at Goddards to allow Haga to take the win by a tenth of a second.
