The Champion of the Supersport Sam Lowes will start the final race of season 2013 from the pole-position. This is his 9th pole-pisition with the team Yakhnich Motorsport. Vladimir Leonov will start from the 4th place.
The weather today was hot without rain. Yakhnich Motorsport teammates did all their program for this day. Morning Free practice Leonov was the leader, Lowes and Sofuoglu were behind him. The time during qualifications showed that the team has the potential to get two first places on the podium. During the qualification Sam used racing tires but when he took soft tires he made several laps with best time and became the leader. Unfortunately, Leonov falied to finish with the pole-position, when he pit out for best laps the traffic was too dense. So he could get only the 4th position.
Sam Lowes: «I got very good pace today! The race will be great tomorrow! I ride as I want – «for fun»!»

Vladimir Leonov: «We are ready for the race! The bike has brilliant settings! I will try to get podium! But I'm upset that has lost the pole-positions.»
Claudio Corsetti, the Yakhnich Motorsport general manager: «I think tomorrow the race will be good for our team. We hope to see the same result as in Imola or better!»
