More from a press release issued by WSBK:

Mahias strikes late at Assen for his tenth WorldSSP pole position, shuffling his rival Debise to P2. The ‘Cathedral of Speed’ featured no shortage of drama in WorldSSP’s Tissot Superpole session.

The FIM Supersport World Championship rolled out on the tarmac to begin their Pirelli Dutch Round on Friday afternoon. Friday afternoon featured a treat of a Tissot Superpole session at the venerated TT Assen Circuit, as Lucas Mahias (GMT94 Yamaha) took pole position with the session’s fastest time. Ever so slightly behind Mahias was his countryman and rival Valentin Debise (EASTROC ZXMOTO Factory Evan Bros Racing) on the timesheets in P2, and Albert Arenas (AS BLU CRU Racing Team) took the last spot on the front row in P3. Xavi Cardelus (Cerba Yamaha Racing Team) suffered a crash early in the session at the exit of the final chicane. His bike tumbled across the racing line, causing a red flag to clean up fluids on the track as well as provide him medical attention before he was taken to the medical centre for further attention.

FLYING FRENCHMEN: Mahias and Debise make it a French 1-2

After the red flag restart, 34 minutes remained, and it was Lucas Mahias who made the session his own with a late 1’36.490s to take his tenth WorldSSP pole, his first pole since Most last season. Valentin Debise set himself and his ZXMOTO manufacturer up for continued success after a dominant trip to Portimao as he landed P2 on the session thanks to a 1’36.561s time. Albert Arenas takes P3 at the end of the 45-minute session, landing a strong 1’36.572s time to propel him into the thick of the fight at the front on Saturday afternoon.

 

 BOOTH-AMOS P4: Rides in P1 early

Tom Booth-Amos (PTR Triumph Factory Racing) The Englishman led the session after the red flag; unfortunately, he saw his 1’36.600s time fall down to P4 by the chequered flag. Can Oncu (Pata Yamaha Ten Kate Racing) will see lights out from the middle of the second row thanks to a 1’36.600s time. His real work still remains however, as he took pole at Portimao as well, yet in the last round, he wasn’t able to convert his Race 1 pole into points. Alessandro Zaccone (Ecosantagata Althea Racing Team) made a late 1’36.646s run across the line, sneaking up onto the second row for P6.

 

CASADEI, JESPERSEN, AEGERTER BACK IN THE FIGHT: Season-best result for all three

Mattia Casadei (D34G WorldSSP Racing Team) moved up to the third row for the first time this season after a pedestrian pair of prior rounds. His time of 1’36.658s landed him P7 for his best qualification so far this season. Philipp Oettl (Feel Racing WorldSSP Team) took another rock-solid result as his 1’36.667ss time sends him to the middle of the third row for P8. Jaume Masia (Orelac Racing VerdNatura) snagged a P9 finish to start on the fourth row with a time of 1’36.872s, tailed by Danish rider Simon Jespersen (EAB Racing Team), a tenth behind him in P10. Dominique Aegerter (Kawasaki WorldSSP Team) landed a critical Superpole result at Assen thanks to a late 1’37.045s, his P11 arriving like rain in a drought to the Swiss rider who has had a rough start to his WorldSSP return so far.

More from a press release issued by WSBK:

Mahias strikes late at Assen for his tenth WorldSSP pole position, shuffling his rival Debise to P2. The ‘Cathedral of Speed’ featured no shortage of drama in WorldSSP’s Tissot Superpole session.

The FIM Supersport World Championship rolled out on the tarmac to begin their Pirelli Dutch Round on Friday afternoon. Friday afternoon featured a treat of a Tissot Superpole session at the venerated TT Assen Circuit, as Lucas Mahias (GMT94 Yamaha) took pole position with the session’s fastest time. Ever so slightly behind Mahias was his countryman and rival Valentin Debise (EASTROC ZXMOTO Factory Evan Bros Racing) on the timesheets in P2, and Albert Arenas (AS BLU CRU Racing Team) took the last spot on the front row in P3. Xavi Cardelus (Cerba Yamaha Racing Team) suffered a crash early in the session at the exit of the final chicane. His bike tumbled across the racing line, causing a red flag to clean up fluids on the track as well as provide him medical attention before he was taken to the medical centre for further attention.

FLYING FRENCHMEN: Mahias and Debise make it a French 1-2

After the red flag restart, 34 minutes remained, and it was Lucas Mahias who made the session his own with a late 1’36.490s to take his tenth WorldSSP pole, his first pole since Most last season. Valentin Debise set himself and his ZXMOTO manufacturer up for continued success after a dominant trip to Portimao as he landed P2 on the session thanks to a 1’36.561s time. Albert Arenas takes P3 at the end of the 45-minute session, landing a strong 1’36.572s time to propel him into the thick of the fight at the front on Saturday afternoon.

 

 BOOTH-AMOS P4: Rides in P1 early

Tom Booth-Amos (PTR Triumph Factory Racing) The Englishman led the session after the red flag; unfortunately, he saw his 1’36.600s time fall down to P4 by the chequered flag. Can Oncu (Pata Yamaha Ten Kate Racing) will see lights out from the middle of the second row thanks to a 1’36.600s time. His real work still remains however, as he took pole at Portimao as well, yet in the last round, he wasn’t able to convert his Race 1 pole into points. Alessandro Zaccone (Ecosantagata Althea Racing Team) made a late 1’36.646s run across the line, sneaking up onto the second row for P6.

 

CASADEI, JESPERSEN, AEGERTER BACK IN THE FIGHT: Season-best result for all three

Mattia Casadei (D34G WorldSSP Racing Team) moved up to the third row for the first time this season after a pedestrian pair of prior rounds. His time of 1’36.658s landed him P7 for his best qualification so far this season. Philipp Oettl (Feel Racing WorldSSP Team) took another rock-solid result as his 1’36.667ss time sends him to the middle of the third row for P8. Jaume Masia (Orelac Racing VerdNatura) snagged a P9 finish to start on the fourth row with a time of 1’36.872s, tailed by Danish rider Simon Jespersen (EAB Racing Team), a tenth behind him in P10. Dominique Aegerter (Kawasaki WorldSSP Team) landed a critical Superpole result at Assen thanks to a late 1’37.045s, his P11 arriving like rain in a drought to the Swiss rider who has had a rough start to his WorldSSP return so far.
