Haslam triumph in Kyalami

In Race one Fabrizio on the Ducati took an early lead and was having fun and kept us amused with his slides in and out of corners, it was like watching a stunt rider performing high speed stunts.

Although Fabrizio won race one of the Kyalami round, but the real worrier was Haslam on the Suzuki…he was the star of race one and two, battling against the rookies -Rea- and the geezers -Biaggi- he manged to snatch race two from Rea at the last lap, it was a prertty intense fight.

Manufacturers standings : SUZUKI 222,  APRILIA 213, DUCATI 185.

A double for Johnny

As much as race 1 was a bore, race 2 was amusing…Rea on the Honda took the pole in both races and was fast as rocket and steady as a train.

Corser on the BMW led both races for a while but no one could find a way around Rea, it was not a good race for Ducati as Fabrizio fell in race one and Haga had a technical problem that made him quit race 2.

The Aprilia rider Leon Camier was doing well until he took a bad fall in race 2.

Rea the raising star

Rea

Race 1: Haga’s start was best and he managed to lead the race up to couple of laps before the chequered flag when he made a slight mistake.. Spies cut loose and took the win. Makoto Tamada got into an incident with John Hopkins shortly after the start, they were both taken to the hospital.

Race 2: Haga did another mistake but this one costed him the race, and might cost him the season, he slowed down in the middle of a corner trying to go back to the race line but Rea was coming in fast… both made contact.. Haga fell and Rea claimed the podium.

The second race of the World Super Bike championship -Misano round-was a fierce fight between the young -22 years- English rider Jonathan Rea and Fabrizio, after a couple of spectacular laps and just when we thought Fabrizio and Haga will eat Rea alive and claim the title of this race.. Rea manages to slip away to the podium.

Ducati is still leading the WSBK, the points as follows:

Haga 292 points

Spies 244 points

Fabrizio 237 points

Race one was a bore and as expected Spies came 1st, Byrne 2nd , and Fabrizio 3rd.
