IRRC Terlicko – Superbike : Grams Takes Hard Fought Pole Position

At the conclusion of a day of truly world class closed roads competition at Terlicko, the battle for supremacy in the battle for pole position for tomorrow’s IRRC Superbike races, was lead by German roads legend Didier Grams.

G&G Motorsport’s Grams within the second qualifying session lap time of 2 minutes 14.151 seconds, proved just enough to take a hard fought pole position, as under 0.7 of a second covered the top three in qualifying.

Leading the challenge to four times big bike IRRC champion Grams were Markka Racing’s Erno Kostamo (2.14.470) and championship leader, Terlicko newcomer Danny Webb (2.14.826).

Meeting wildcard Petr Biciste (2.17.280) was next up on the time sheets, whilst Switzerland’s Lukas Maurer (2.17.508) impressed in finishing an excellent fifth fastest.

Placing’s sixth and seventh on the overall qualifying time sheets were claimed by the closely matched, Penz 13 BMW duo of Marek Cerveny (2.18.280) and recent eighth place finisher in the Pokerstars Senior TT Jamie Coward (2.18.379).

Taking places eighth, ninth and tenth in qualifying were respectively Tomas Borovka (2.18.602), Ales Nechvatal (2.18.739) and David Datzer (2.19.160).
