World Superbikes’s first qualifying session at Monza was longly delayed as the track had to be cleaned up after Mitchell Carr’s Triumph leaked oil from the Serraglio to the Ascari chicane during Supersport qualifying.
The QP1 started with some sun and a dry track so lap times dropped with Marco Melandritaking over the top of the timesheets with a best lap of 1′42.883, even if their were some drops of rain during the halfway mark, which fortunately didn’t turn into a rain show.
Jonathan Rea also moved forward to take second in the finale, demoting Aprilia’s Sylvain Guintoli to third after he led most of the practice.
Tom Sykes was fourth and more than six tenths from Melandri and followed by three Aprilia riders, Althea’s Davide Giugliano, Red Devil’s Michel Fabrizio and Aprilia factory’s Eugene Laverty. Loris Baz was 8th fastest, while Fixi Suzuki’s Leon Camier and Jules Cluzel closed out the top ten.
Chaz Davies was only 13th but he crashed out in the first minutes of the session at turn 8 and was unable to return to track because his BMW was scattered in serveral pieces.
As expected on a dry track the Ducati riders were much slower, Carlos Checa and Ayrton Badovin, were 11th and 12 respectively losing more than 20km/h in top speed. Checa’s top speed on the Panigale was 311,2 compared to Marco Melandri’s 331,4.
