Five-time MotoAmerica Superbke Champion Cameron Beaubier took pole position during MotoAmerica Medallia Superbike Qualifying Two (Q2) Saturday morning at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.

Riding his Tytlers Cycle Racing BMW M 1000 RR, Beaubier did a 1:22.959, which was just shy of Josh Herrin’s All-Time Lap Record of 1:22.908.

Two-time and defending Champion Jake Gagne pushed late to secure the second grid spot with a 1:23.069 on his Fresh N Lean Progressive Yamaha YZF-R1.

Richie Escalante earned the third and final spot on the front row with a lap time of 1:23.272 on his Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki GSX-R1000R.

Row-two starters include Gagne’s teammate Cameron Petersen (1:23.529), Westby Racing Yamaha’s Mathew Scholtz (1:23.534), and Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati’s Josh Herrin (1:23.679).

The top eight qualifiers were separated by just 0.8 second.

The first of three Superbike races is scheduled to start at 3:10 p.m. Pacific Time.
