2010 Silverstone WSBK FP2 Result - Checa Upsets British Hegemony

Althea Ducati's Carlos Checa became the first non-British rider to top the timesheets in the World Superbike class during the second session of free practice at the revised Silverstone circuit. The Spanish veteran nudged a trio of Brits off the top spot, beating Alstare Suzuki's Leon Haslam, HANNSpree Ten Kate's Johnny Rea and Sterilgarda Yamaha's Cal Crutchlow into 2nd, 3rd and 4th respectively. The gaps remain relatively small, however, as Checa was just a tenth of a second faster than Haslam, and a second covered the top 12. Superpole is to follow at 3pm local time.
