Gregorio Lavilla powered in the fastest ever two wheeled lap of the Brands Hatch Indy Circuit to claim pole start for the final round of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship, posing problems for the three riders gunning for the country’s premier crown. Ryuichi Kiyonari, the reigning champion, is in the driving seat to retain the silverware, starting with a 37 points advantage over his HM Plant Honda team-mate Jonathan Rea, while Leon Haslam, the double race winner of Donington Park, is third, a further four points down.
