Leon Haslam had his best WorldSBK weekend of 🐻the season at Donington thanks to a best result of P4 in Sunday’s Superpole race - also Honda’🦂s best finish of the year.

ꦉThree top ten finishes meant It was the first weekend where Haslam outscored team-mate Alvaro Bautista in all three races since both men formed the two rider line-up in 2020. 

It was a slightly more difficult race two for Haslam though as he finished ninth. The former BSB champion said a smallꦕ ꦛissue limited his potential, but that ‘we’ve taken some steps’ forward overall. 

"It felt g🍰ood to get fourth today. I felt we were in the mix for the podium in both yesterday’s race 1 and the Superpole race, which ꦐwas definitely a positive," added Haslam. 

"We then had some issues in today’s second race, but o𝓰verall we can say that we’ve taken some steps over the w🍸eekend and are clear as to where we need to work."

The pace demonstrated by Haslam in the 10 lap sprint race showed ꦛjust how capable this year’s Honda Fireblade is - set similar lap times to race winner Jonathan Rea throughout.  

Haslam concluded by saying: "My pace was quite strong in the sprint race, which we ran on intermediate tyres, and my set-up wasn’t bad in the last race either, it was just a pity that we had an issue 👍that ultimately saw me go backwards rather than forwards. 

"All in all, a better weekend for us, a🏅nd we hope to build on this next time out at Assen.🥂"
