"Superbike's return to the legendary Silverstone Circuit with its newly revised layout and surprisingly stable weather conditions, saw an armada of British riders fill the podium in both races. A stunning double victory went to Yamaha whose local rider Cal Crutchlow took the team's first two wins today. Cal logged his fastest lap on the penultimate circuit in Race 2, having already set the circuit record of 2'05.259 on lap 13 in Race 1, showing in both cases the durability of Pirelli Diablo Superbike tyres to the race end."
"Honda's performance in Supersport was absolute, taking the top three positions which included the Intermoto Czech privateer team, whose 20-year old rider Gino Rea took home his first Supersport podium. Congratulations to BMW Motorrad Italia for its first perfect season by winning the Superstock 1000 championship with Badovini at the helm and on Diablo Supercorsa SC2 tyres." (see less)
