The outcome of the 2003 Pro Honda Oils U.S. Supersport race at Daytona International Speedway is yet to be determined, but history favors American Honda’s Miguel Duhamel.

Duhamel, listed as 34 years old in the 2003 AMA Media Guide, is the all-time leader in AMA Supersport race wins with 40. The next closest rider is Mike Smith with 13 career Supersport race wins.

Duhamel has the most career Supersport race wins at Daytona with six. The next closest rider is again Smith with two Daytona Supersport race wins.

Of Duhamel’s six Daytona Supersport victories, five came on brand new models: 1991 on the Honda CBR600F2, 1993 on the Kawasaki ZX-6E, 1995 on the Honda CBR600F3, 1999 on the Honda CBR600F4, and 2001 on the Honda CBR600F4i.

Duhamel will race the new 2003 Honda CBR600RR later today.

Other former Daytona Supersport race winners in the 2003 field include 2002 winner Aaron Yates (Suzuki), 2000 winner Kurtis Roberts (Honda) and 1998 winner Doug Chandler (Honda).
