Second and fourth grid spots for Kawasaki Puccetti racing

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Superpole qualifying at Misano for the FIM Supersport World Championship riders saw #kawasakipuccettiracing team-mates #kenansofuoglu and #randykrummenacher finish second and fourth on the grid in readiness for Sunday’s 19-lap race.

Starting his #kawasaki Ninja #zx6r off the front row for the eighth time in eight races this year, Sofuoglu clocked up 90 career front row starts today, fifty of them on #kawasaki machines.
 
For Krummenacher a change in set-up before Superpole took him away from the optimum bike set-up for the 4.226km circuit. As a result he could not quite get onto the front row, finishing up fourth and surviving a small ‘moment’ on his fastest lap that lost him a small amount of time.
 
Now the challenge that awaits the #kawasakipuccettiracing team is to make sure each of their riders are in position to fight for the win on Sunday to continue their class leading performance. Their pace and consistency has seen them lead all other competitors at the top of the table, with Sofuoglu first and Krummenacher second entering raceday at Misano.
 
Kenan Sofuoglu, stated: “I cannot say I am disappointed because it was a good qualifying result. No pole but not a problem. I think I was losing time in the last sector and although I was not pushing I also lost the last corner a little bit. This year we have changed the suspension to WP and it is working very well. I feel very strong here now and it was the worst track for us before. In some sessions I was P1 this time. I am happy with the general package we have this year and I am ready for the race tomorrow. We did a good race simulation, the tyre is OK so all is working very well.”
 
Randy Krummenacher, stated: “For sure I expected more but fourth on the grid is not a drama. I have made some really good starts so I have confidence to immediately pass riders. We made a definite mistake in our set-up direction but we are trying to improve all the time. When you are trying this, at a high level like we are at already, then it is also possible to make mistakes. We have learned from it and we know definitely now which the best direction is for us. This should give us the right set-up for tomorrow’s race, so I am very confident.”
