Roger Lee Hayden: "Two difficult races for me today. In race one I had to re-enter the box because of some technical problems. Unfortunately we had some brake problems also during the fifteenth lap of the second race which prevented me from getting a good position and some points for my championship standing. I am very disappointed because we could have fought for a good result here and I’m sorry for my team because we didn’t finish with a good result. I want to thank all my crew for their great job during the entire Superbike season".
Matteo Baiocco:”I’m pretty satisfied with my today results. In race one I fought in a group of three riders and finally I reached the fifteenth position. In race two my rhythm was more fast and I obtained the fourteenth place. Three points in two races is a good result and I’m happy also for my team. These were the last two races of the season and so I want to thank and I want to thanks the guys in the team who have done a great job during the full racing season”.
Danilo Petrucci crashed during the morning Superstock 1000 warm up, because of same oil on the track, fortunately without any physical consequences. Team Pedercini technical staff worked hard to prepare his bike ready for the race. The Italian rider lined up from the second row while team mate Leeson started from the sixth. Not a good start for Petrucci. During the first few laps Petrucci was eleventh and after a quick start his teammate Leeson ended up in eighteenth position. Leeson found a good pace. He recovered some positions, reaching the sixteenth place. As the race proceed Petrucci was battling for the sixth position in a group of four riders. The Italian rider ended the race in the eight place and Leeson obtained the eighteenth position.

Danilo Petrucci: ”First of all I want to thank my team and Andreani suspension technicians because after my crash in this morning warm up, they were able to repair my bike in less than one hour. What a great job! My start was not so quick and so I was very aggressive during the first laps trying to reach the leading group. Near the end of the race my rear tire started losing grip. I tried to move forward struggling against Giuliano and I finished my race in eighth place. I fought to reach a better result for my sponsor and for my team and I would like to thank all of them for their great job during this racing season”.
Chris Leeson: "My start was pretty good and in a few laps I was able to recover a lot of positions. I was close to the points zone when I felt a lot of chatter coming from the rear wheel and shifting also on the front wheel. The problem only got worse as the race laps continued. I couldn’t really chase the riders in front of me and the only thing I could do was try and finish the race. As usually the team has worked extremely hard and I’d like to thank them for their help this weekend and the entire season."
