Qualifying three
Leon Camier 56.016
Tommy Hill 56.195
Chris Walker 56.221
Airwaves Yamaha's Leon Camier set another pole postion for tomorrow's British Superbike battle at Mallory Park. Camier's 56.016 is the quickest lap of the weekend so far and was just two-tenths faster than Worx Suzuki's Tommy Hill.
Camier has been suffering technical problems since yesterday afternoon and his team have been frantically re-building his racebike after a problem with the wiring loom this morning.
Motorpoint Yamaha's Chris Walker steps onto the front row for the first time this season and local man Richard Cooper puts his Co-ordit Yamaha in fourth place, just 0.3s behind Camier. John Laverty won the battle of the Kawasakis, beating Simon Andrews to fifth. James Ellison ended the session in seventh with Karl Harris rounding out the second row. Graeme Gowland and Stuart Easton are at the head of row three.
Qualifying two
Tommy Hill 56.176
Leon Camier 56.271
Stuart Easton 56.415
Hill set a blistering lap of 56.176, fastest of the weekend so far, with only a couple of minutes gone to ensure he moved into the final session and Camier chased him hard, putting his lap in with just two minutes to go.
Easton pulled himself out of the drop zone with his 56.415 lap which knocked Andrews into fourth place for the second session in succession and he was followed by Harris.
After setting the quickest time early on, Airwaves Yamaha's James Ellison took tenth and last spot, moving forward into the final qualifying session.

Qualifying one
Leon Camier 56.355
Richard Cooper 56.569
Tommy Hill 56.629
HM Plant Honda's Steve Brogan was sensationally eliminated from qualifying in the first session with a 57.547 lap-time which was more than a second slower than Camier's.
Cooper used his local knowledge to set the second fastest time with one minute to go. That bumped Hill into third, and Andrews into fourth and the last place on the provisional front row.
Buildbase Kawasaki's Tristan Palmer's last lap elevated him to sixth on the timesheets and out of the relegation zone but it bumped Tom Tunstall back into the drop zone and he was forced to sit out the next qualifying sessions.
