Yoshimura Suzuki’s Mat Mladin overcame inclement weather and an all-day rain delay to win Sunday’s AMA Superbike race and therefore sweep both AMA Superbike races of the weekend at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio. This is the second Mid-Ohio sweep for six-time AMA Superbike Champion Mladin and it’s his eighth win at the Lexington circuit. Additionally, this win is Mladin’s eighth of the 2007 season and his 59th career AMA Superbike victory.
Teammate and defending AMA Superbike Champion Ben Spies followed Mladin home in second place in both Saturday’s and Sunday’s races. This result means that Spies retains command of the AMA Superbike points chase. Yoshimura Suzuki teammate Tommy Hayden rounded out the weekend with two strong top-10 finishes, by coming in ninth in both events.
Mat Mladin:
“It was a good race, even though the track was a little sketchy after the rain... If I had to retire tomorrow, then I’d be a happy person by being able to win races and do what I’ve done. So I’m out there enjoying myself and racing a kid who’s got a bright future ahead of him. To be able to do that, that’s pretty good… I love the next two racetracks – completely. VIR and Road Atlanta, I’m just looking forward to getting there.”
Ben Spies:
“I gave it my all today but we just didn’t have what it took. After Mat got past me, we tried to rebound and be there but we just didn’t have it. It’s going to be tough to get it turned around, but we had pretty good speed today. We made a mistake that was my fault, but the bottom line is that we’re not getting it done right now. But VIR is coming up and I’ve had some good speed there in the past. We’ve still got the points lead, though it’s not as big as we’d like it to be. If we’re going to win the title we have to win a couple races.”
Tommy Hayden:
“Today’s race was a lot like yesterday’s, to be honest -- and not just because we got the same result. We didn’t have a red flag today but we had the rain that lasted all day. Also, we were still struggling with some specific areas of the track. But I’m working with my crew on getting more comfortable on the Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000. We have some testing to do next week and then we’ll be focusing on the Virginia race.”
All of Suzuki’s road race teams will return for round nine of the AMA Superbike Series at Virginia International Raceway in Alton, VA, the weekend of Aug. 17 - 19, 2007.
