Ben Spies moved 14 points behind World Superbike Championship leader Noriyuki Haga after his second victory of the day at Donington Park, while Haga suffered a heavy fall. Rookie American Spies was the only rider to claim two podium finishes, with Max Biaggi – second in race one – falling from the runner-up spot on lap four of race two. The Roman, who momentarily took the lead from Spies into turn one, then clashed with Alessandro Polita in his haste to rejoin the race and eventually finished 21st and last for Aprilia. Haga, third in race one, held that same position early in race two before being promoted to second by Biaggi’s error. But Haga held the position for less than a lap before a heavy crash through the fast Coppice turn, heading onto the back straight.
Il texano della Yamaha Ben Spies vince entrambe le gare a Donington e riduce il distacco in classifica da Haga. Per il giapponese, caduto nella seconda prova, frattura di una vertebra e probabil e Mondiale finito. Biaggi, secondo in gara-1, scivola nella seconda: per lui piccola frattura. Male Fabrizio.
