Race One Noriyuki Haga on the Yamaha Italia machine took a dominant win at the EuroSpeedway in Germany, crossing the line 11secs clear of his nearest rival. From the outset it looked like Troy Bayliss had race one of round eleven of the Corona Extra Superbike World Championship wrapped up. He pulled a lead of 3.233secs just five laps in however he had pushed his tyres too hard too soon and by lap fourteen he had Haga for company. Haga reeled in Bayliss and sprinted away to take a well earned win. Second place went to Max Biaggi on the Alstare Corona Extra Suzuki who had a big fight on his hands due to Troy Corser trying to take second place from him. The Roman kept the Australian at bay and Corser had to settle for third place. Bayliss sadly finished in fourth place just ahead of Hannspree Ten Kate Honda’s Roberto Rolfo. The PSG-1 Kawasakis who had started from first and second on the grid ended the race in sixth and seventh with Regis Laconi finishing ahead of his team-mate Fonsi Nieto. Lorenzo Lanzi was unable to repeat his winning form in Germany and had to settle for eighth place ahead of the Championship leader James Toseland who was ninth. Toseland appeared to have tyre issues from the start as he wasn’t as committed into the corners as most of his rivals and he simply looked uncomfortable. The final place in the top ten went to Karl Muggeridge on the Alto Evolution Honda. Race Two Troy Bayliss worked hard to secure his race two win at the EuroSpeedway in Germany with Noriyuki Haga giving chase for full race distance. Xerox Ducati’s Troy Bayliss took the second race win of round eleven of the Corona Extra Superbike World Championship at the EuroSpeedway, making up for his disappointment at a non podium finish in race one. Second place went to Noriyuki Haga on the Yamaha Italia who pushed Bayliss from lights to flag and did lead the race for a number of laps at the mid point. The final podium place went to Max Biaggi on the Alstare Corona Extra Suzuki. James Toseland had a better run in race two but the podium still eluded him as he finished in fourth place. The entire field ran the hard rear tyre in race one, for some riders it worked and for some it didn’t. Race two saw the same rear tyre choice for everyone but with more adjustments to the bikes which seemed to have improved matters for Toseland. Haga’s team-mate, Troy Corser didn’t get the win he had hoped for instead he finished in fifth place behind Toseland. Ruben Xaus on the Sterilgarda Ducati was in sixth place ahead of the second Ten Kate Honda bike of Roberto Rolfo. Fonsi Nieto on the PSG-1 Kawasaki went from pole to eighth place during the race while his team-mate Regis Laconi had an excursion through the gravel. German rider, Max Neukirchner finished in ninth and Karl Muggeridge completed the top ten.
