World Superbikes » Bayliss makes perfect start at Valencia.

Monday, 19th March 2007

Reigning double World Superbike champion Troy Bayliss made a perfect start to the Valencia test - the Australian enjoying a 0.4secs advantage over his rivals as he easily dipped under the official lap record.

In the morning session the clear leader was rejuvenated Althea Honda rider Katsuaki Fujiwara, but his overall second place was forced on him by the sheer speed of Foret. Misano race winner in 2006, Massimo Roccoli was an assured third fastest for Yamaha Italia, with Foret's team-mate Pere Riba fourth and just over half a second from the front. 2006 title runner-up Kevin Curtain was fifth across both sessions, with his Yamaha SSP Racing team-mate Broc Parkes just behind.

Monday will witness the second and final day of testing at Valencia - and the last chance for track time before round three of the 2007 championship, at Donington Park in England, on April 1.
