Carlos Checa (Althea Racing Ducati) put in a 1 minute 58.315 second lap on a drying track to take his fourth Tissot Superpole win of the 2011 season and give himself the best possible starting slot for raceday on Monday.

Only just behind was Jakub Smrz (Effenbert-Liberty Ducati), deposed by Checa with no time left to go faster. Yamaha World Superbike team-mate Marco Melandri and Eugene Laverty completed the front row, mastering the damp conditions well when it counted most.


The second row is headed by Sylvain Guintoli, Smrz's team-mate, with the top official BMW rider on show Troy Corser going sixth. Late faller in Superpole 3, Max Biaggi, was seventh for Aprilia and impressive BMW Motorrad Italia Superbike rider Ayrton Badovini was eighth.

Was this a repeat Aus? Strange to be having racing on Tues (which would be Monday over there)

[Ausinanas]

No it's this years race not sure why they are racing in Monday

It's prob due to some ancient American law like you can marry your horse on the 4th Sunday in May
But race a bike and it's 10-20 in the Pen
