Another almost faultless display of front running delivered Kenan Sofuoglu (Hannspree Ten Kate Honda CBR600RR) his third race win of the year, pushing him into a substantial 44-point lead in the championship after only four of 13 rounds. His excellent performance on raceday was underpinned by an impressive pole win on Saturday, the first of his WSS career, thanks to a time set in the first dry qualifying session.
In second place after 23-laps of often incident-packed action, Andrew Pitt (Hannspree Ten Kate Honda CBR600RR) had a dream re-introduction to World Supersport racing, having been drafted in at short notice to replace the recently injured and still unfit Sebastien Charpentier (Hannspree Ten Kate Honda CBR600RR). He qualified fifth.
Poor weather issues which had plagued Valencia for most of the weekend did not quite spoil the racing on Sunday, with a drying track allowing Katsuaki Fujiwara (Althea Honda Team CBR600RR) to take a new lap record on lap six, with a 1 37.570.
