TROY Corser guided his FP1 home in both races in another testing round of the World Superbike championship for Foggy Petronas Racing at a sweltering Oschersleben circuit in Germany.

But team-mate James Haydon was unable to compete in race two yesterday after a heavy fall in the opening race at Triple, the fastest corner of the circuit.

Haydon, already nursing a broken bone in his foot and damaged leg and shoulder ligaments from a crash two weeks ago at Monza, suffered a sprained ankle and wrist, as well as severe bruising, when his bike jumped out of gear and he ran into the gravel at more than 100 mph.

Corser finished 12th and 14th, in races won by Neil Hodgson and James Toseland respectively, having experienced problems with his rear shock in the first race and his clutch in race two.

Team boss Carl Fogarty said: "The results on track are certainly no reflection on the hard work put in by my whole team.

"James was gaining in confidence and I feel sorry that the bike let him down. It's a tough time, not just for the riders and the team, but for me as well.

"I am used to coming at the front and I am not there right now. It might not come until next year, but a win will come.

"It's easy to run a team with a proven bike but it's the ultimate challenge with a new bike and we clearly have a number of issues to sort out.

"But I was very impressed with James Toseland. I know how it feels to win your first race."

Haydon said: "It has been another character building weekend. Right now my character is as

strong as Geoff Capes but my body feels like Will O' The Wisp!"
