Petrucci rockets to Superstock pole #6
Danilo Petrucci (Barni Racing Ducati) powered to his sixth pole position of the year in the Superstock 1000 category, equalling Maxime Berger's circuit best lap on the way. The Italian will have some tough competition alongside him on the front row: Frenchman Loris Baz (Ten Kate Junior Honda), Niccolò Canepa (Lazio MotorSport Ducati) and Sheridan Morais (Lorenzini by Leoni Kawasaki), all with experience in higher categories.
Lorenzo Zanetti (BMW Motorrad Italia Superstock), Petrucci's only adversary for the runner-up slot, was only in eleventh place on the third row, while his team-mate Sylvain Barrier was up in fifth ahead of Lorenzo Baroni (Althea Racing Ducati) and Bryan Staring (Pedercini Kawasaki).
