The Quattro Plant superbike was struck by mechanical problems during the weekend. Steve’s qualifying session was cut short having only completed one lap. Luckily the one and only flying lap was a quick one and Steve qualified well.
The bike was repaired overnight, however during warmup on race day, the Honda Fireblade was struck by a gear selector problem. The team managed to replace the gear selector shaft in time for race 1, however it had not solved the problem and after a good start, Steve was forced to retire after just a handful of laps.
