Want to know why Kawasaki PSG-1 Corse team-mates Regis Laconi and Makoto Tamada qualified just 22nd and 25th on the grid for Sunday's Brands Hatch round of the World Superbike Championship?

According to the team, both riders struggled because 'the huge power [output] of [the] engine makes the ZX-10R wheelie far too much thus causing a bad feeling with the front tyre'.

A team statement added that 'the atmosphere [in the pit garage] obviously isn't light but everyone in the team is determined to solve this problem.'
