  • WSBK Rd. 11, Nurburgring, GER, Final Qualifying 05 September 2009 17:07
    WSBK rd. 11, Nurburgring, GER, final qualifying 05 September 2009 17:07 2009 Superbike World Championship Round 11, Nurburgring, Germany Circuit: 5.148 kms. Conditions: Dry, mostly overcast 13-19 C. Final qualifying, Saturday 5th September. TROY MISSES THE FRONT ROW BY A WHISKER! Team BMW Motorrad Motorsport rider Troy Corser lost his chance of a possible front row grid position when Noriyuki Haga (Ducati) inadvertently got in his way towards the end of the final Superpole. Troy had qualified for Superpole in 19th place, but then stormed his way up through Superpole 1 with the fourth fastest time. In Superpole 2, he surprised everybody by posting the second quickest time and the scene was set for BMW’s first front row of the season. But, in Superpole 3, Troy got baulked by Haga right at the end and the time lost was enough to leave Troy with the sixth fastest lap and a place on row two instead. Troy’s young team mate Richard Cooper failed to qualify for Superpole because of a lack of dry set-up time. After yesterday’s rain-filled sessions, today saw a dry track and Richard had to find a dry set-up right from scratch. But the young Briton ran out of time in the 45-minute qualifying session and was forced to sit out Superpole. Noriyuki Haga took Superpole, his first of the season, with Jonathan Rea (Honda) second, Leon Haslam (Honda) third and Michel Fabrizio (Ducati) fourth. Troy - 6th, 1:56.296 Towards the end of Superpole 3, I was really going for it and looking for our first front row of the season.
