Unedited race notes from our live reporting page

  • 1702 - Race Results - Brookes, Fergusson, Giles, Dan Stauffer, Jamie Stauffer, Allerton, Johnson, Etheridge, Henderson, Charlton, Maxwell rounds out the top 11 then it is Holland, Gobert, Greedy, Cudlin, Rees, Wicks, Gibson, Tozer, Roe, Williams
  • 1701 - Brookes leads through Southern Loop, holds on to it through Honda, Siberia, Hayshed, Lukey, Fergusson may have to settle for 2nd...
  • 1700 - Lapped traffic now but the leaders get through safely, Krusty back in the lead, turns 11 and 12 Brookes all over him... Takes the lead down the straight again, Dan has lost touch with the leading trio now so only Honda and Suzuki left in the hunt for the win... Last Lap...
  • 1659 - Connection problems again... Summary thus far... Superbikes away now and Fergusson leading the way from Dan Stauffer around lap one, Stauffer tries around the outside on the entry to Lukey which was brave but can't make it the order at the end of lap one was Fergusson, Stauffer and Brookes but Brookes just blew past Dan's Yamaha down the straight like it was standing still or had a plug lead off. So it is Brookesy leading early on lap two from team-mate Fergusson, Gilesy all over the back of Dan now and looking like a man on the move... Through MG for the second time and it is Brookes from Fergusson and Brookes pulls out a little through 11 but Fergusson seems to get a better entry to 12 and they cross the line with only 0.169 of a second the gap, Dan 7-tenths behind the leader but not out of the game but has his hands full with the #3 Suzuki of Giles... Krusty hard on the gas out of 12 with the back end of his Honda waggling away as they come onto the main straight but Brookes holds him off, Giles closing now and right on the Honda men while Dan Stauffer strives to keep in touch... Fergusson all over the back of Brookes and looking aggressive but Brookes certainly won't make it easy for him, Giles looking on from close behind waiting for the Honda boys to trip each other up... 1m35.0 the best lap so far and that went to Brookes, less than half a second covering the leading trio and Dan right there still. Gilesy thought about having a go at Krusty into turn four with four laps to run but thought better of it and Krusty gets the lead from Brookes shortly thereafter and holds on to it around the back of the circuit, through Lukey, Brookes right on his tail through 11 and 12 and the younger one of the pair takes the lead down the straight while Gilesy starts to thinking about making a move on Krusty for 2nd... Dan watching on from a few bike lenghts behind but not out of the game yet... Fergusson has a look up the inside at MG but thinks better of it, big black line through 11 and 12 from the boys. Giles right on them down the straight but remains in third place while Brookes takes the lead with two laps to run..
