  • 1413 - Rattenbury coming back at him though. Stuart Fripp had been trying to hold of James Van Rooyen but the Aprilia man got him on the penultimate lap.
  • 1411 - Cartwright getting away from Rattenbury a little now, dipped into the 56s with a 56.9
  • 1408 - The Yamahas are through though, Cartwright leading from Rattenbury
  • 1407 - Mark Willis got a perfect launch on the BMW to lead the field through the first turn and he will be making it very wide where he can to keep those Yamahas behind him
  • 1405 - Nakedbike race up next
