FIM Cup Superstock 1000 Round 9 Magny-Cours (France) October 2 McCormick and Reiterberger in the points This weekend was the occasion to welcome in the team the Canadian Superbike Champion Brett McCormick alongside the three regular riders Markus Reiterberger, Beau Beaton and Randy Pagaud. It was a good experience for him and he will be again with us for the last round in Portimão. Davide Giugliano (Althea Racing Ducati) was the hero of the day when he won the 2011 FIM Cup Superstock 1000, while finishing the Magny-Cours race in fifth position. The winner was (Danilo Petrucci Barni Racing Team Ducati), in front of Lorenzo Zanetti (BMW Motorrad Italia), Sylvain Barrier (BMW Motorrad Italia) and Niccolò Canepa (Lazio MotorSport Ducati). Brett McCormick and Markus Reiterberger stayed most of the race between the eleventh and the fourteenth position. It was not so bad, considering that McCormick was discovering the championship and Reiterberger had a crash that didn’t help during the practice sessions. Randy Pagaud started 23rd and moved forward to the 21st position. Beau Beaton crashed while he was in 21st position. Happily he wasn’t hurt and could restart to finish the race. Brett McCormick: “The race was good. We improved again from yesterday. This morning we dropped again a second a lap. I got a really good start. I think I was twelfth on my first lap. I had a good battle with Markus. I am happy and glad we have another shot at it in Portugal. I am looking for a top 10 there.” Markus Reiterberger: “My start was OK. In the first two laps, I was a little bit slow. I became faster and faster. In the middle of the race, it was OK. But in the end of the race, the feeling was not so good. So two guys passed me and I finished fourteenth.” Randy Pagaud: “My start was not as bad as in Imola. I was fast in the beginning and passed a few riders. Then I was in a small group, For Magny-Cours, the position is not great, but my race times were better than during qualification. I’ll try to do better at the next race.” Beau Beaton: “My race was not very good at all. Not a good start, then I made up some positions in traffic. I was pushing very hard, trying to get some points. Then I had a crash. I was able to finish the race. Not a very good day at all, really.” Race result: 1- Danilo Petrucci Barni Racing Team Ducati 1098R 2- Lorenzo Zanetti BMW Motorrad Italia BMW S1000RR + 2.734 3- Sylvain Barrier BMW Motorrad Italia BMW S1000RR + 2.801 4- Niccolò Canepa Lazio MotorSport Ducati 1098R + 2.997 5- Davide Giugliano Althea Racing Ducati 1098R + 11.455 6- Fabio Massei Team Piellemoto BMW S1000RR + 11.817 7- Andrea Antonelli Team Lorini Honda CBR 1000RR + 11.956 8- Sheridan Morais Lorenzini by Leoni Kawasaki ZX-10R + 14.026 9- Marco Bussolotti Team Pedercini Kawasaki ZX-10R + 17.193 10- Lorenzo Savadori Lorenzini by Leoni Kawasaki ZX-10R + 17.351 11- Bryan Staring Team Pedercini Kawasaki ZX-10R + 17.388 12- Michael Savary Salac Racing BMW S1000RR + 21.854 13- Brett McCormick Garnier alpha Racing Team BMW S1000RR + 22.252 14- Markus Reiterberger Garnier alpha Racing Team BMW S1000RR + 22.666 “¦21- Randy Pagaud Garnier alpha Racing Team BMW S1000RR + 42.516 “¦25- Beau Beaton Garnier alpha Racing Team BMW S1000RR Superstock 1000 FIM Cup provisional standings: 1.
