Team Alstare Suzuki rider Max Neukirchner was in sensational form today, posting the day’s fastest lap in this afternoon’s qualifying session at Monza. The young German blitzed the 5.793 kilometre circuit in 1:45.990, breaking the lap record in the process.
Team Alstare Suzuki head to Monza this weekend battered and bruised but eager to attack the podium at the famous Italian circuit. Fonsi Nieto injured his knee in the last round in Valencia and was unable to train until today but is keen to put away his Assen disappointment and get back on the podium again.
Team Suzuki Alstare rider Fonsi Nieto has been forced to keep off training this week because of doctor’s orders. The Spaniard crashed in the first race in Assen last weekend and damaged his knee in the process.
The Assen round of the Superbike World Championship was always going to be a tough one for Alstare Suzuki rider Max Neukirchner, especially coming so soon after breaking his left collarbone in a crash at Valencia less then three weeks previously.
