Loris Baz wins second race over fellow Frenchman Jules Cluzel

Loris Baz (Kawasaki Racing Team) won an epic World Superbike Race 2 at Silverstone. The Frenchman was leading during the final lap when the red flag was waved, as the rain suddenly increased and two riders fell off at Stowe corner. One of the two involved was Jules Cluzel: the FIXI Crescent Suzuki rider managed to rejoin and make it back to the pits, sealing a fantastic maiden podium finish as the results reverted back to the previous lap, when he was running second. Baz, on the other hand, was able to shine again on the English track, that saw him getting his first ever WSBK win one year ago (Race 1).

Eugene Laverty (Aprilia Racing Team) ended in third place, ahead of Jonathan Rea (Pata Honda World Superbike) and Leon Camier (FIXI Crescent Suzuki), who had his shot at the lead before losing several positions, during the incredible 7-way battle that characterised the second part of the race.

Sylvain Guintoli (Apriila Racing Team), thanks to a sixth place finish ahead of Championship contender Tom Sykes (Kawasaki Racing Team) keeps the lead in the standings with a 13 point gap over the Brit. Potential podium finisher Chaz Davies (BMW Motorrad GoldBet) had to retire from the race due to a technical problem on Lap 15, when he was in the mix up front.

Sylvain Barrier completes double win

Reigning Champion Sylvain Barrier (BMW Motorrad GoldBet) has taken the best out of the Silverstone doubleheader, after finishing as lonely winner in late afternoon's FIM Superstock 1000 Cup race 2. The Frenchman started increasing his margin over the following riders halfway through the race, crossing the line with almost four seconds over Leandro Mercado (Team Pedercini Kawasaki) and 5.7 seconds on third place Lorenzo Savadori.

Barni Racing Ducati rider Niccolò Canepa ended up fourth, while his team mate Eddi La Marra fell off his 1199 Panigale R on Lap 4, as he was running second. A technical problem ruled Jeremy Guarnoni (MRS Kawasaki) out of contention, despite all the efforts by the former STK600 Champion to get back on track and finish the race. Thanks to his fifth win out of seven races, Barrier extended his lead in the standings to 36 points on Canepa and 55 on Guarnoni.

Tradition, art and charity mixed together at Moscow Raceway

Today's Pre-event for the eni FIM Superbike World Championship Russian Round was a mix of national folklore and art skills. Following an amazing performance by three dancers who pirouetted across the Paddock Show stage in traditional dresses, World Superbike and Supersport riders were involved into an unusual master class of painting.

Eugene Laverty (Aprilia Racing Team), Chaz Davies (BMW Motorrad GoldBet), Loris Baz (Kawasaki Racing Team), Jonathan Rea (Pata Honda World Superbike), Leon Camier (FIXI Crescent Suzuki) and Carlos Checa (Team Ducati Alstare), joined by Yakhnich Motorsport Yamaha duo of Sam Lowes and Vladimir Leonov and Rivamoto Honda's Eduard Blokhin took on the "colourful" challenge.

Armed with brushes and paints, riders put their hands on ceramic plates and personalised them with a theme of their choice, using the traditional Russian handicraft "Zhostovo" technique.

These unique items will be put up for auction and the funds raised will help homeless children of the Moscow region, who have also been invited by circuit organisers for a special visit to the track, scheduled for tomorrow morning.

A real hand-decorated "Zhostovo" art piece, in store for the best performer in the event, went to Eduard Blokhin, whose plate was exquisitely painted by his little daughter.

Further information about the auction will be available at www.worldsbk.ru and on WSBK social media.
