Suzuki Hopkins On Assen WSB 2nd Row
Crescent FIXI Suzuki's John Hopkins will start tomorrow's World Superbike races at Assen from the second row of the grid after recording his best qualifying result of the season so far in The Netherlands this afternoon.
Hopkins (P8, 1'37.913) is still recovering from a pre season injury, but today showed that he is close to full fitness as he put his Yoshimura-powered GSX-R1000 onto the second row. He could easily have been on the front row if chatter hadn't caused him to abort a flying lap when he looked likely to better his previous best time but is now in a confident mood for tomorrow's races and feels he can put on a good show at the 4.542m Dutch circuit.
