Toseland/Bayliss win
James Toseland and Troy Bayliss have both taken wins at the final round of the World Superbike championship as Sebastien Charpentier retained his World Supersport title.
Race one saw Toseland fight off a race long challenge from both Noriyuki Haga and Troy Corser to take his third win of the season, in a race red-flagged due to oil after just one lap, which saw Ivan Goi crash out. Other fallers included Toseland’s team-mate Karl Muggeridge, Andrew Pitt and Fonsi Nieto.
The second and final WSB race of the season saw Troy Bayliss take victory at a circuit he had never raced at before. Troy Corser took second on his final outing for Suzuki, before his switch to yamaha next year, while James Toseland rounded off his season with a third position. Toseland’s third place secured his second place overall in the championship. Pierfrancesco Chili finished in 15th position in his final race before moving into management with DFX Honda.
Sebastien Charpentier retained his World Supersport title as series leader Kevin Curtain crashed out of contention on lap eight. Curtain had a comfortable lead going into the final round, but once out of the race, Charpentier was able to concentrate on winning, with team-mate Kenan Sofuoglu watching his position and taking second. Broc Parkes took third place.
