ROUND 7/JUNE 22, 2014
MISANO WORLD CIRCUIT MARCO SIMONCELLI/RIVIERA DI RIMINI, ITALY
P88
Barcelona, Ireland, I had a lot of
physio sessions and home treat-
ments because of the bruising.
The overall impact on my body
also helped give me the cold and
I am still suffering now from it. I
am happy to have two weeks of
relaxation time now. I really need
it, from a physical point of view."
The atmosphere in the Kawa-
saki Racing Team garage had
been frosty to start after a mas-
sive bust up between Sykes and
Baz in Malaysia, and harsh words
in the media after, but the perfect
liniment was success.
And the Kawasaki Racing
Team had buckets of it sloshing
around the podiums at Misano.
Baz was second in each race
and so effective that in race two
he did what few riders are able to
do – he resisted the attempted
passes of Aprilia's Marco Me-
landri more than once.
For a 21-year-old rider - espe-
cially after the fallout of Sepang
Sykes won the 19
th
and
20
th
World Superbike
races of his career on
Sunday in Italy.
