Pirro on pole at record speed
Michele Pirro (Hannspree Ten Kate Honda) set a new track best at the very end of the final qualifying session to take pole position at Misano, his 1 minute 38.444 seconds proving to be unbeatable, and well timed.
Eugene Laverty (Parkalgar Honda) had to settle for second on the grid, with local wildcard rider Roberto Tamburini (Bike Service Yamaha) an impressive third. Joan Lascorz (Kawasaki Motocard.com) earned a top four place, with Gino Rea (Intermoto Czech Honda) a positive fifth, one place up on series points leader, Kenan Sofuoglu (Hannspree Ten Kate Honda).
