BMW's Leon Haslam has said he doesn't blame Jonathan Rea for the last corner crash which cost him a debut win for his World Superbike team today at Donington Park and reckons team-mate Marco Melandri made a big mistake.

The Italian put in two big lunges in as many corners on the last lap to try and take top spot from Haslam but they both ended on the floor with Haslam pushing his bike across the line for a single point.

"It could easily have been two double podiums for us. I was in the lead, but Marco got in much too quick on both the last two corners. I didn't brake too hard and too late, but he came from a long way back and I had to lift off. I went to close the line, but Jonathan was there. Marco knows it was a big mistake. I don't blame Johnny. Obviously there are no team orders with BMW - Marco and I are both going for the championship, and that's racing," said Haslam, speaking to bikesportnews.com at Donington Park.
