KurveyGirl.com brings you the results of this weekend’s events.
Loris Baz will start the MotoAmerica Steel Commander Superbike races from pole position at New Jersey Motorsports Park, in Millville, New Jersey. The Frenchman earned pole position with the 1:22.737 he did on his Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati Panigale V4 R during Qualifying One (Q1) on Friday. That session ended with mostly dry track conditions and all riders on Dunlop Sportmax Slicks.
During Qualifying Two (Q2) on Saturday, conditions were much different with a wet track and a misty rain falling. As a result, the times from Q1 held up as the final qualifying results.
Five-time MotoAmerica Superbike Champion Cameron Beaubier (1:23.150) will start second on his Tytlers Cycle Racing BMW M 1000 RR.
Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki’s Brandon Paasch (1:23.769) held onto the third and final spot on the front row.
Josh Herrin (1:23.931), Baz’s teammate and the Championship point leader, will start from fourth on the gird in need of only five points to clinch the 2024 title.
Attack Performance/Progressive Yamaha’s Cameron Petersen (1:24.057) was fifth-fastest.
Xavi Fores (1:24.280), who is riding in place of Petersen’s injured teammate Jake Gagne, completes row two.
Row three starters include EasyHealthPlans.com/TopPro Racing BMW’s Sean Dylan Kelly (1:24.618), Wrench Motorcycles Yamaha’s Bobby Fong (1:24.770), and Beaubier’s teammate JD Beach (1:25.985).
