Sebastien Charpentier (Winston Ten Kate Honda) performed another of his famous demolition jobs in the last few laps of an otherwise close Losail Supersport race, but in Australia few believe he will be able to repeat his five-second margin of victory. Possible race winners include Yamaha Motor Germany’s Aussie duo of Kevin Curtain and Broc Parkes, on the all-new Yamaha R6. Maybe the darkest of horse is Kenan Sofuoglu, Charpentier’s team-mate who dazzled all in Qatar with his skill and aggression, in what is his rookie WSS season. The rest of the Supersport field could not find the pace of these main players in Qatar, and one top rider will miss the round all together. Katsuaki Fujiwara (Megabike Honda) has had to return to Japan to undergo an operation on his broken scaphoid, and should return at Valencia, on April 23.
