Giugliano second but still championship leader
A thrilling fight for much of the race between Danilo Petrucci (Barni Racing Team) and Davide Giugliano (Althea Racing) eventually saw Petrucci almost crash but then collect his thoughts well enough to run out the winner by two clear seconds.
Niccolò Canepa (Lazio MotorSport) was third in a Ducati clean sweep of the podium positions at the Imola round. Lorenzo Baroni (Althea Racing Ducati) headed off practice faller Sylvain Barrier (BMW Motorrad Italia Superstock) for fourth place.
Markus Reiterberger (Garnier Alpha Racing Team BMW) finished sixth, just ahead of top Kawasaki runner Sheridan Morais (Lorenzini by Leoni).
Ducati has now won six of eight races in 2011 and in the championship fight Giugliano has an impressive 160, Petrucci 119, Imola faller Lorenzo Zanetti 117 and Barrier 96.
