There were two distinct Max Biaggis at Misano yesterday, both of them winning at the Adriatic Riviera circuit in the seventh WSBK round.After taking race 1, battling at every curve with the top riders (he started from the tenth spot on the grid), Biaggi had the satisfaction of dominating race 2 in true Biaggi style, demonstrating an unsustainable pace for all his rivals right from the start.Starting once again from the third row, this time Max already completed part of his masterpiece on lap 1. Lying in fifth place after just a few curves, he rode his Aprilia RSV4 to third place. Then, after overtaking Rea on lap 2 and front-runner Sykes on lap 3, Max widened the gap with a series of fast laps that led to an advantage of more than seven seconds at the flag, where he was followed across the line by Rea and Haslam.At the end of the day Biaggi was unable to hide his satisfaction: "It was an amazing weekend. After Superpole which forced me to start from the third row, I was able to stay focused and express myself well during the race. After the test sessions I chose a tyre which wasn't the fastest as far as lap times go, but the one that gave me more confidence. In any case I had to take some risks because there are very few places to overtake here, but in the end I was successful and I'm leaving Misano with an incredible double win. I'd like to thank the guys on the Team who always work well and I would like to dedicate this victory to my girlfriend Eleonora and my son Leon, who was here at the track for the first time to see me race".

Thanks to the perfect work done by the whole team led by Antonio "Ninetto" Suriano the Italian, a rookie this year in Supersport, took the Triumph Daytona 675 machine back to the podium again after a couple of years with a third place.Baldolini started from row 3 and immediately gained some positions to move up to fifth. and sixth place gaining a gap on the competitors of more than 2 seconds. Ahead of him Foret had to give way due to a penalty after the first turn and then Lowes crashed out, leaving Baldolini in third. The Italian maintained his advantage over Tamburini and took the chequered flag with a third place conquering the very first podium of his career in Supersport.Alex Baldolini: "I'm really happy. This is the result of the great work done by the team even after some issues we had during practices. I knew about my potential with this bike and I hit the result I was hoping for. I kicked off really well immediately gaining some positions and I could get rid of some competitors boosting up the gap on them. When I knew that I was two places ahead, I fought hard because the soft tyre was starting to lose its performance. I tried to adapt my style to the situation and was able to contain Tamburini. It's a great satisfaction that helps me to be in fifth place in general ranking."
