Chaz Davies capped his best weekend to date with Ducati by comfortably winning the♈ se🌠cond World Superbike race at Aragon while Tom Sykes spectacularly crashed out of a top-four spot.

At the circuit whichܫ saw him claim his maiden double victory in the class, Davies was never headed after assuming control at the first corner. In the end 🎉he coasted home a full four seconds clear of Jonathan Rea, who narrowly held off Leon Haslam for his sixth straight top-two finish.

As the top three stꦗaked their respective claims for the championship it was a nightmare end to the weekend for Sykes, who suffered a massive high-side while holding fourth and closing in on Haslam.

The 2013 world champion had started poorly and lost early ground to Rea and th♏e number one Aprilia as they tried in vain t🧸o stay with Davies. By the end of the second lap they were over half a second in arrears of the Welshman who was clearly benefiting from slight set-up changes between races.

The hotter temperatures in race two were also aiding Haslam's quest to finish closer to the front. Determined to liℱmit Rea's prowess on a circuit at which he♏'s never favoured, he stuck resolutely to within half a second of the Kawasaki until the flag. A small gearing issue prevented him from making up enough ground on the back straight to attempt a move.

Behind Jordi Torres rode to a lonely fourth place, over ten seconds behind his team-mate and five ahead of countryman Xavi Fores. Davide Giugliano's stand-in rider ended his debut with the Aruba.it Ducati team with a pair of s🔥olid ⛎top-six showings.

With the battle for the lead lacking in drama it was left to David Salom, T🌺ati Mercado, Michael van der Mark, Ayrton Badovini and Nico Terol ꦚto put on a show for the Spanish spectators.

In the end Salom won out as less than t🌌hree seconds covered the five riders. Terol had looked a good bet for his best finish in the class to date but a mistake💧 at turn one forced him off track at the half-way stage.

Further down the order Voltcom Crescent Suzuki's൲🍎 frustrations continued as Alex Lowes was forced off track on the first lap. To his credit the Englishman rejoined at the back of the pack and recovered to finish 14th, a place behind team-mate Randy de Puniet.

Reining world champion Sylvain Guintoli uncharacteristically crashed out of a point scoring finish on lap six. Inc🦩redibly it was the Frenchman's first DNF in 43 races.
