JAVI TAKES 12TH.

Team Alstare Suzuki Corona Extra rider Javi Fores finished the fifth round of the 2005 World Supersport Championship race in twelfth position! The race saw a terrific battle between series leader Sebastien Charpentier (Honda) and Kevin Curtain (Yamaha). Curtain was glued to the rear wheel of the Honda for most of the 28-lapper, but was forced to slow his pace when his tyres started going off. Charpentier took the win - his third of the season- by almost three seconds at the flag. Curtain took runner-up spot with Frenchman Fabien Foret (Honda) third

JAVI - 12th

Today my Alstare Suzuki felt better then yesterday - and more like it did on Friday. But having to start so far down the grid was a big problem and this is not the circuit to make up huge advantages and be able to get to the front. I was 15th at the end of the first lap and got up to 12th by ninth lap, but from then I couldn't make any further progress. There's not much to say except I had hoped for much more, but it didn't happen.
