The 17 lap World Supersport race held at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari was won by Kenan Sofuoglu (Kawasaki Puccetti Racing) after another intriguing dual between the Turkish rider and one of his closest rivals Jules Cluzel (MV Agusta Reparto Corse) on the final lap.

The pair smashed the lap record repeatedly as they pulled away from the chasing pack with Sofuoglu eventually taking the win, the 30^th of his WSS career and the 3^rd in a row in 2015, to extend his championship lead after Cluzel made the smallest mistake to miss out on the victory by 0.883s.

Last year’s race winner Lorenzo Zanetti (MV Agusta Reparto Corse) was unable to live with the pace of the front two, having to be content with 3^rd after the Italian overhauled PJ Jacobsen and Marco Faccani (San Carlo Puccetti Racing) who were 4^th and 5^th respectively.

Ratthapark Wilairot (CORE Motorsport Thailand) led Gino Rea (CIA Landlords Insurance Honda) over the line, the two locked together for the race duration, taking 6^th, 7^th ahead of Riccardo Russo (CIA Landlords Insurance Honda), his team mate Martin Cardenas and Roberto Rolfo (Lorini Honda) who rounded out the top ten.

Kyle Smith (Pata Honda World Supersport Team) crashed out of contention on lap 3, he was able to re-join to claim the final point in 15^th.

Donington Park in the UK is the stage for round 6 in a fortnight.
