#CHALLENGING #BSB QUALIFYING FOR @BENNETTS #SUZUKI
Team Suzuki Press Office – June 25.
Bennetts Suzuki had a tricky qualifying session at Knockhill in Scotland, with tight lap-times and changeable weather conditions hampering preparations for tomorrow’s races and round four of the MCE British Superbike championship.
Ryuichi Kiyonari, returning to action for the first time since breaking his collarbone at the previous round, spent much of Friday practice finding his feet and ensuring he felt comfortable on his GSX-R1000. After two solid sessions, he set the second fastest time in FP3.
He progressed comfortably from Q1, but a sudden rain shower saw the second qualifying session red-flagged and delayed on safety grounds. Kiyonari started strongly when the session resumed, but unfortunately couldn’t hang on to his position in the top nine, and finished the session 14th.
