Erion Honda’s Josh Hayes rode through pain to take a critical pole position during AMA Supersport qualifying Saturday afternoon at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. In spite of riding with two suspected broken feet suffered in a crash just a few hours earlier, Hayes turned a 1:26.706 to break Roger Hayden’s lap record of 1:27.496 and earn the pole position and the bonus Championship that comes with it. The bonus point puts Hayes in a position where if he leads the most laps and wins the race he can win the 2007 Supersport Championship if Roger Hayden, the current Championship leader, finishes fourth or worse. If Hayes wins the race, he will also beat Jamie Hacking, who is currently second in points, in the Championship. In the recent past Hacking, a two-time AMA Supersport Champion, has insinuated he may do what he can to help Roger Hayden win the Championship. Asked about the crash, Hayes said, “It was just your typical, really big highside out of Turn Two. It threw me way up in the air. I kept thinking, ‘Man, I’m gonna land any time now.’ And when I did, I landed on my feet. Luckily, Dr. Elleby was here. He had to remove the toe nail on my right foot, on my big toe, tried to numb it up a little bit. I’m not sure about the left foot. It’s probably the one that’s bugging me the worst right now. Both feet are pretty bad, so we’re going to get it checked out to make sure we’re good to go for tomorrow. “Getting pole was pretty awesome for the team and for all of us. I put together a couple of good laps. I feel like I’m struggling a little bit. I’m pretty sure I can go a little faster. It’s really hard changing directions because my feet are hurting so bad. I have new boots. They were really crammed in the boots, and I was dragging my feet on the ground and just not a good feel for where I was on the racetrack. I think it’ll be better tomorrow.” Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Jamie Hacking put in a last-lap attempt to steal the pole away from Hayes but came up just short with a 1:26.766. Graves Yamaha’s Josh Herrin earned the third starting spot with a 1:27.108 on his YZF-R6, and Geoff May was the top non-Dunlop and top Suzuki qualifier with a 1:27.152 on his Pirelli-shod Team M4 EMGO Suzuki GSX-R600. Hacking’s teammate Roger Hayden qualified fifth with a 1:26.250. The top seven qualifiers were under the old lap record. Update: Josh Hayes has confirmed that he suffered bone fractures in both of his feet. He has decided to sit out the Formula Xtreme race to focus on the Championship-deciding Supersport finale. 2007 Pro Honda Oils AMA Supersport Championship Presented by Shoei Helmets Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca Monterey, California September 15, 2007 Provisional Qualifying Results (old lap record – Roger Hayden, 1:27.496): 1.

Lash Mullen (Suz GSX-R600), no times More, from a press release issued by Team M4 EMGO Suzuki: FRONT ROW STARTS FOR TEAM M4 EMGO SUZUKI Team M4 EMGO Suzuki claimed a pair of front-row grid positions on Saturday at Laguna Seca in preparation of Sunday’s Superstock and Supersport season finales. Geoff May put in a gritty effort on the day, overcoming illness to claim a starting position on the outside of the front row in both of his classes. The Georgian first set the fourth fastest time in the Superstock session aboard his Pirelli-shod GSX-R1000 (1: 25.578), and then backed it up with the fourth quickest lap in Supersport qualifying aboard his GSX-R600 (1:27.152). “It was a really good day for me considering I’ve been dealing with some kind of stomach virus,” May said. “I’ve been struggling all day and I really didn’t want to be on a motorcycle today. It was one of those days where you’ve got to suck it up and do your job so I’m really happy to be on the front row. I was roughing it all day but I’ve taken a bunch of medicine and I’m feeling better. “I did a seven-lap run and every lap we just kept getting faster. We’re down in the low ’25s and that should put us right where we need to be as long as we can stay fast until the end. If we’ve ever had a shot at doing well, this could be it because we’re not having any issues whatsoever.” “I’m just here having fun with my team and my crew. It’s been a long year and we’ve had a lot of ups and downs. We’re just enjoying the sunshine and having fun.” Martin Cardenas should be a threat in Sunday’s 17-lap Supersport final as well. The Colombian, who has finished on the podium in two of most recent four Supersport races, will start from the second row after qualifying sixth fastest at 1: 27.272. Michael Beck will open the season’s final race from the fifth row. The Californian is hoping to build upon his Road Atlanta top ten result in Sunday’s season finale after qualifying 23rd (1:30.024). Cardenas was fifth fastest in Formula Xtreme practice on Saturday (1:27.376) and will qualify for the 17-lap race on Sunday morning. Team M4 EMGO Suzuki will conclude the 2007 AMA season on Sunday afternoon with the final races of the Superstock, Supersport, and Formula Xtreme championships.

Erion Honda’s Josh Hayes was injured when he crashed during AMA Supersport practice Saturday morning at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Hayes, a close third in the Supersport Championship point standings coming into the weekend, highsided his CBR600RR exiting Turn Two early in the session, according to his Team Owner Kevin Erion. Hayes then landed on his feet. Erion said Hayes had been checked out by the track doctor and released with clearance to continue riding. A source close to Hayes, however, said he may have broken both feet, as they have swelled up considerably since the incident. Hayes was unavailable for comment at post time.

About halfway through Saturday morning’s AMA Supersport practice five riders crashed in rapid succession at the bottom of the Corkscrew. The crashes were apparently caused by fluid on the track. Among the riders who crashed were: Graves Yamaha’s Josh Herrin, Team M4 EMGO Suzuki’s Martin Cardenas and Celtic Racing Yamaha’s Chaz Davies. All riders were seen walking away from the incident. Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Jamie Hacking led the practice with a time of 1:27.465, which is quicker than his teammate Roger Hayden’s lap record of 1:27.496. 2007 Pro Honda Oils AMA Supersport Championship Presented by Shoei Helmets Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca Monterey, California September 15, 2007 Provisional Practice Results: 1.

Johann Zarco won the inaugural Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup by winning his third race of the season from Cameron Beaubier and Matthew Hoyle. The Frenchman had to fight all the way though as both the American and the Briton had their chance to lead and never gave up the chase. “I am absolutely thrilled to win the first Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup and it was a great race,” said Zarco who had dominated practice completely. “I tried to get away from the start but I couldn’t. I don’t know but perhaps they picked up some of my lines and as they followed. I did expect that Cameron might challenge in the race as he’s a very good rider and we had a great fight with Matthew all the way.” “In the end it came down to just trying to make a perfect last two laps and hope I could gain a small advantage, I just really concentrated on that. I only found out after the race that Cameron had made a bit of a mistake and was not right there behind me.” “Yeah, I just got the rear wheel a little in the air on the brakes,” said Beaubier. “I had to let them off and ran a bit wide. We had a lap and a half to go and tried to catch back up but the bike was sliding around a lot as the tyres were pretty worn and I just couldn’t do it.” “I really enjoyed the race, it was great,” continued Beaubier. “There was not much in it around the lap, Johann was a bit quicker than me going into the last turn but I had a better line coming out. That was about it.” Hoyle also justly deserved his place on the podium, racing wheel to wheel for the lead and only getting dropped a few laps from home. “It was a great race and I really enjoyed it, by the end my tyres were shot and I almost crashed a couple of times.” he said. In fact as he slipped away from the battle for the lead he was caught and passed on the last lap by Frenchman Cyril Carrillo. “I didn’t even know it was the last lap. I just knew I had to get back in front, I think I just did it by about a tyre’s width at the line,” conclude Hoyle. It had been a clean start and Zarco took the lead up the inside of Hoyle into the second corner with Beaubier back in fifth after being a little slow off the line. Zarco was keen to get away but Beaubier and Hoyle were determined to go with him. Lap three saw Zarco start to exert his pace and he gained an advantage of almost a second as Beaubier tried to take second from Hoyle. On lap four Hoyle ran wide through a long left hander and Beaubier cut through. Beaubier was second across the line but Hoyle went past on the brakes at the end of the straight. Beaubier went by again and they still had not lost more than a second to the leader. In fact as they completed lap five Beaubier had cut the Frenchman’s advantage to just four tenths with the fastest lap of the race to that point. Half way round lap six he was on Zarco’s tail and had dropped Hoyle by the best part of a second. Crossing the line Beaubier snatched the lead after Zarco ran a little wide onto the straight. Zarco fought back and suddenly Hoyle was with them making it a three man battle for the lead. Behind the leading trio Carrillo had fought through to fourth just ahead of Spaniard Luis Salom, American Kris Turner, Scot Deane Brown and Sweden’s Robert Gull. All five embroiled in a great battle five seconds behind the leaders. At the head of the field they were three abreast on the brakes for the lead at the end of the straight and the Rookies looked like they had been doing it for a decade. Hoyle had a chance to lead on lap ten but Zarco and Beaubier elbowed past again. Starting lap eleven Turner ran onto the dirt at the first corner but it was still a four man battle for fourth as Salom raced on with Gull, Brown, Carrillo. Mossey lay eighth and Savadori a lonely ninth seeing his championship hops disappear. “My bike was just too slow again.” said the disappointed Italian. “I just rode as hard as I could but they kept coming past on the straights. I am sure it was not possible to do more with this bike than I did.” Three laps to go and Zarco towed Beaubier away from Hoyle. Would the American now sit behind and wait for the last lap as he had done so effectively at Sachsenring?… would Zarco let him? Effectively the race was decided when Beaubier lost ground with a mistake with just a lap and a half to go. He ran wide slightly and going onto the last lap Zarco held a 1.2 second advantage and Beaubier was three seconds in front of Hoyle. Hoyle was being caught by Carrillo. The Frenchmen took third half way round the final lap but Hoyle would not be denied his place on the rostrum and fought back to snatch back third on the line. 2007 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup Estoril, Portugal September 15, 2007 Race Results (all on KTM 125s): 1.
