Milwaukee Yamaha's James Ellison murdered his Silverstone 200 opposition in qualifying this morning, going almost a second quicker than Dan Linfoot with a time that would put him 21st on the MotoGP grid.
Ellison was the only man in the 2'07s bracket with his 2'07.523 while Linfoot mustered a 2'08.510, himself half a second faster than GBmoto team-mate Peter Hickman in third. Ellison's team-mate Josh Waters was fourth but over two seconds slower than the Kendal man.
Jonathan Railton heads the Superstock 1000 runners with Marshall Neill and David Johnson behind. Graeme Gowland is the fastest of the Supersport runners with a 2'10.708 which was enough for eighth place on the grid.
