got tighter at the top this week-
end.
Rea now has 407 points,
Sykes 282, Davies 263 and the

Race One:
1. Chaz Davies (Duc)
2. Tom Sykes (Kaw)

4. Davide Giuglian (Duc)
5. Jordi Torres (Apr)
6. Alex Lowes (Suz)
7. Sylvain Guintoli (Hon)
8. Michael van der Mark (Hon)
Alex Lowes had turned in as
Guintoli was about to pass on
the inside. Lowes was headed to
the pits to retire, having another
tough day.
Davies had once more run
clear at the front in race two with
Sykes and Rea, and also Haslam
sitting with them for a time, wait-
ing for any mistakes from the
warring Kawasaki riders. Haslam
had to drop back and was
passed by his teammate Torres,
setting off a battle that Torres
was to win for fourth place.
Sykes set the best lap of the
race on lap 10 of 25, on a drying
track but despite some tactile
moments with Rea, Laguna was
all about Davies—Superpole and
It was another all-British podium—
