The Navarra circuit played host to round 7 of the WSBK championship, nestled in the north of Spain. The all-important Superpole race was first on the agenda once the free practise sessions had closed; a race that would determine Chaz Davies standing on the grid for race one. Good tyre choices gave Chaz a fighting chance to perform well. Keeping the leading group within his sights, the Welsh rider fought for fifth, defending his this position until the race end.

Starting strong, Chaz soon engaged pockets of riders in race one, taking opportunities when they arose and therefore achieving the subsequent overtakes. A top 5 finish and best independent was within his sights when the front tyre let go of the tarmac, landing Chaz out of the race. A disappointed rider then set his sights on Sunday to score points.

Sunday’s Superpole wasn’t as successful as the previous day due to a slower start. With just ten laps to find a placing, Chaz found it harder to make up positions conceded early in proceedings. Despite gaining pace in later laps, Chaz had to settle for a respectable 7th.

Lady luck was not on Go Elevens side again in the last race of the weekend. A very similar issue to Saturday’s race caused Chaz to crash out while overtaking during lap one. Team and rider were disappointed, but both looked onwards and upwards to the upcoming French Round – Magny Cours.
