WSB Monza Race Two ... More Surprises.

Spies takes WSB Monza Race Two win over Fabrizio by a second and a half while Haga hits a bird and crashes on lap three! Kiyonari finished a close third, then fairly evenly spaced behind him were Rea, Biaggi, Sykes, Haslam and Smrz with three other bikes hot on his heels. Spies lead from the opening laps but there was close racing behind that saw Biaggi lose position in the group when he screwed up. Zemke crossed in 20th. Corser was a non-starter after his problems with Race One. No indication whether he has any physical injuries. So what does this do to the points race? With Haga's DNF, his lead over Spies is cut back to 54 and Ben opens his lead slightly on Fabrizio to 21. Following not too far behind Michel are Brits Haslam and Sykes. Haga's insurmountable lead is now mountable, but it will take some more wacko race days like today to do it.
