The reigning World Superbike champion was untroubled throughout the race to take a lights-to-flag victory and duly extends his advantage to 93 points in the riders’ standings over Bautista. After the first corner incident Davies charged into second place, Bautista gradually climbed up the order to take fourth place by the chequered flag as Michael van der Mark kept clear to complete the podium with third place for Pata Yamaha. 597871
