A stunning effort with ten minutes to𒊎 go saw Cluzel regain top spot from Aegerter🅠, while Gonzalez also jumped ahead of the Swiss rider for second. Cluzel then improved again to go underneath the 1m 42s barrier with a lap that put him close to eight tenths clear of Gonzalez.

Free Practice One
World Supersport championship leader Dominique Aegerter set a blistering pace in FP1 to finish fastes🍸t from Manuel Gonzalez.
Soon-to-be Moto2 rider Gonzalez led t😼he way during the opening stages of World Supersport free practice one, while title contenders Aegerter and St♛even Odendaal were fifth and sixth.
Puccetti Kawasaki rider Can Oncu was the first to ♛better Gonzalez’ top time, b♚efore Aegerter then went half a second clear with just over 20 minutes remaining.
Gonzalez looked ဣset to regain top spot with his fi♍nal effort of the session, but the Spaniard was held up in sector four and instead had to settle for P2.
T🔥he margin from Aegerter to Gonzalez looked to be a substantial one as the Ten Kate Yamaha rider improved by a ♑further four tenths on his last lap, however, that time was later deleted due to exceeding track limits - +0.048s was instead the gap.
