The penultimate day of World Supersport testing ahead of the season opener ended earlier today with Kenan Sofuoglu (Kawasaki Puccetti Racing) coming out on top after two 110 minute sessions.
In the opening session of the day it was former champion Kenan Sofuoglu (Kawasaki Puccetti Racing) who emerged on top 0.699s ahead of 2014 Phillip Island race winner and the 2014 vice champion Jules Cluzel (MV Agusta Reparto Corse), the pair several tenths ahead of the rest of the pack.
The later afternoon session saw the morning head wind on the Gardner Straight subside resulting in brace of faster times and with a lap time within a second of circuit lap record it was Sofuoglu who goes into tomorrow‰Ûªs final test session in top spot.
Commenting on his pace during the day the Turkish rider was clearly buoyed by the his team‰Ûªs ability to ensure tyre durability so early in the weekend ‰ÛÒ ‰ÛÏIt‰Ûªs hard to make a tyre a last even 10 laps here, so to complete so many laps at the pace we did is encouraging for us. The team did a great job‰Û
