French Superbike Championship at Magny-Cours, France.

 

Reigning champion Kenny Foray (FRA) and his Tecmas Racing Team
enjoyed a perfect weekend in the French Superbike Championship (FBSK).
In the fourth event of the season at Magny-Cours (FRA), Foray started
both races from pole position, celebrated two wins with his BMW S 1000
RR and recorded the fastest lap both times. Camille Hedelin (FRA)
finished in seventh-place twice. Foray’s Tecmas team-mate Maxime
Bonnot (FRA) secured first place in the Superbike Challenger class
(SBK Ch) in both races. Bonnot finished the two races in tenth overall.

 

Kenny Foray: “It was a very good weekend for us
because we took two pole positions, two victories and two fastest race
laps. So it was just perfect. In race one, we had really good pace and
we could soon build a gap to the rest of the field. That was cool. The
second race was a bit difficult because during the final stages I had
to battle with Jeremy Guarnoni. I just overtook him on the final lap
to finish first. That was a really good feeling and I am really happy
for everybody.”

 

 

Alpe Adria Road Racing Championship at the Pannoniaring, Hungary.

 

The Alpe Adria Road Racing Championship (AARR) visited the
Pannoniaring in Hungary for the third event of the 2018 season. The
most successful BMW rider so far in the Superbike class (AARR SBK),
Mercury Racing Team’s Karel Hanika (CZE), was unable to compete in the
races due to a broken collarbone. The best-placed BMW rider at the
Pannoniaring was his team-mate Ondrej Jezek (CZE), finishing in fifth
and sixth positions.

 

BMW racer Michal Filla (CZE / BMW Sikora Motorsport) remains the
dominant force in the Superstock class (AARR STK). He won both races
again to celebrate his fifth and sixth wins of the season. In race
one, Arnaud Friedrich (GER / Team LRP Poland) finished second to
complete a one-two finish for BMW. Friedrich claimed fourth place in
the second race.

 

 

French Superbike Championship at Magny-Cours, France.

 

The French European Bikes Championship (FR EU) also took place at
Magny-Cours (FRA). In total there were four podiums for BMW riders:
defending champion Florian Brunet-Lugardon (FRA / Gers Moto Vitesse
Ordannaise) finished second in the two races, while Jonathan Germany
(FRA) reached the rostrum by finishing third both times.
Brunet-Lugardon still tops the championship standings, ahead of
Germany in second place.

 

 

Canadian Superbike Championship at St. Eustache, Canada.

 

The BMW S 1000 RR riders claimed another clean sweep of the podium
positions at the third race of the 2018 Canadian Superbike
Championship (CSBK) at St. Eustache (CAN). The successful BMW line-up
was headed once again by record champion Jordan Szoke (CAN / Mopar
Express Lane BMW Superbike Team), who celebrated his eighth
consecutive win – including last season’s tally. Second place went to
Ben Young (CAN / Ben Young Racing). Samuel Trépanier (CAN / Blysk
Racing) started from tenth place and moved up to third to complete the
