Superbike Spain: Elias at the top in the first free practice
The Spaniard preceded the Aprilias of Laverty and Guintoli
It was the surprising one Toni Elias on Aprilia Red Devils to get everyone in line in the first tests at Jerez de la Frontera. The Spaniard preceded the two official RSV4s Eugene Laverty e Sylvain Guintoli, still fighting for the title and BMW's Marco Melandri, with pain in his ankle due to a domestic accident.
Good fifth David Giugliano on the other motorbike from Noale, preceding a cautious one Tom Sykes on Kawasaki and the wild card Lorenzo Lanzi , excellent on the Mesaroli Transports Ducati. Eighth place for Chaz Davies, followed by Suzuki's Jules cluzel and from Yamaha – Yart of the “guest” Broc Parkes.
Honda Pata of eleventh Leon Haslam, ahead of the two Ducati Alstares Xavi Fores e Ayrton Badovini, to the third S 1000 RR of Sylvain Barrier and to the CBR 1000 of Michel Fabrizio.
