| Corser led the field through
turn one and this time around all riders made it through the
chicane upright. Haga had got away well to run with Corser and
the pair pulled out a handy buffer over their pursuers on the
first lap. Bayliss had his hands full with James Toseland
for the first laps and could not find a way past the Brit until
lap four. Up front Haga sneaked ahead of Corser.
Bayliss pulled away from Toseland and quickly caught onto the back of Haga who had been pushed back to second place again by Corser. Early on lap five Bayliss went to the lead and it looked as though me might pull away. But Corser managed to stay with Bayliss and the Suzuki man took the lead just before the halfway point of the race as it almost appeared that Bayliss might have had some sort of problem. But on the next lap the Ducati man took the lead back and again looked to have the speed to make a break. But on lap 12 Corser managed to nose in front but in a repeat of the earlier proceedings Bayliss came back past on the next lap and pulled a few bike lengths on Corser. This time though Bayliss did not fall back in to the clutches of Corser and by the time he got the last lap board he had a two second buffer over the Suzuki man. The final spot on the podium was being battled over a long way behind the Australian duo, Haga came home third. Alex Barros came home fourth ahead of James Toseland. Five in a row now for Bayliss...
