He said after the race in a TV broadcast: “It’s definitely been a tough day after yesterday, as ultimately I wanted to be on top, but the goal was to be on the podium, so thank you to all the M4 ECSTAR Suzuki team.”
• Superbike riders Toni Elias and Bobby Fong were unlucky to both slide off when they were in challenging positions in the early and mid-parts of the 12-lap MotoAmerica Superbike race.
