Broken Collarbone Fails to Stop Xavi
01 July 2008
Not even a broken left collarbone could deter Team Alstare Suzuki rider Xavi Simeon’s title challenge in the fourth round of the Superstock 1000 FIM Cup at Misano today. The young Belgian was obviously in pain during the 14-lap race, but somehow he managed to take a superb fifth place and maintain his position at the top of the points standings. Alessandro Polita (Ducati) won the race, with Michele Pirro (Yamaha) second and Maxime Berger (Honda) third.

Tremendous Win for Xavi
12 May 2008
Team Alstare Suzuki rider Xavier Simeon won the third round of the 2008 Superstock 1000 FIM Cup at Monza today after leading the race from start to finish. Xavi started from the third row of the grid, but made a superb start and was third going into the first corner. It was just as well that he was so far up the field, for behind him a rider had crashed braking for the turn and then skittled ten riders and their bikes! Despite there being bikes and riders all over the first chicane, by the time Xavi and the rest of the depleted field came round again the track was clear. Xavi then controlled the race from the front and ran out the winner by over two seconds, with Matej Smrz (Honda) second and Alessandro Polita (Ducati) third. Xavi’s win also moves him into first place in the championship, with a fifteen point lead over Polita.
