Van Der Mark creates another win for Honda
An early scrap between UEM Superstock 600 European Championship rivals Michael van Der Mark (EAB Ten Kate Junior Team Honda) and Riccardo Russo (Team Italia FMI Yamaha) was effectively over when Russo ran wide at mid race distance.
Van Der Mark now has a seven-point championship lead, with one round remaining in France. He has scored five race wins so far while Russo has scored four. Adrian Nestorovic (Team MTM Racing Yamaha) was a strong third in front of his team-mate Gauthier Duwelz at Portimao.
In the championship, van der Mark has 194 points, Russo 187, Duwelz 91 and Nestorovic 74.
