Recent injury and subsequent illness did not stop Renegade Koji Honda's Ben Bostrom from posting a top ten finish at Assen race two and, with more time to heal, he may improve on his top 15 placing in the championship series before the final two races in Italy and France.

Recent injury and subsequent illness did not stop Renegade Koji Honda's Ben Bostrom from posting a top ten finish at Assen race two and, with more time to heal, he may improve on his top 15 placing in the championship series before the final two races in Italy and France.

Bostrom hopes to have further recovered from his unlucky BSB highside injuries, which made his Assen weekend such hard work, in time for this Sunday's Lausitzring event – where he will aim to exploit his previous experience of a circuit which has been absent from WSBK since 2002.

"I've been to Lausitz before, know the track and think it's pretty cool," said Bostrom. "I'll have almost a week to get healed up and the bike goes very well now. It's good. Despite my illness and injuries we qualified very respectably at Assen, 13th fastest before Superpole. Considering there were about 36 guys on the entry list and I was so beat up, that was respectable."
