Superpole three
Noriyuki Haga 1'55.489
Jonathan Rea 1'55.749
Leon Haslam 1'55.776

Xerox Ducati's Noriyuki Haga denied Ten Kate Honda's Jonathan Rea his first  World Superbike pole position, demoting the young Irishman to second with his final lap of the third qualifying session.

Rea had set a 1'55.749 with only three minutes of the session gone which he held until the Japanese rider went a quarter of a second faster which also demoted Stiggy Honda's Leon Haslam to third.

Haga's team-mate Michel Fabrizio is on the outside of the front row as Sterilgarda Yamaha's Ben Spies sits next to him, sensationally only managing fifth fastest. The American crashed in this morning's free pratice, which may have damaged his confidence.
BMW's Troy Corser is sixth with Aprilia's Max Biaggi seventh and Carlos Checa, Rea's team-mate, rounding out the second row of the grid.

Superpole two
Noriyuki Haga 1'55.831
Troy Corser 1'55.986
Ben Spies 1'56.029

Haga used the first of his two qualifiers to cement his position in the final qualifying session and a sensational lap from Corser put the BMW rider in second with Spies, again doing only one lap, in third.

Sterilgarda Yamaha's Tom Sykes was bumped out of the top eight by Fabrizio's final fast lap with Checa clinging on by the skin of his teeth. Rea was the quickest of the Brits, two-tenths off Haga's time.

Superpole one
Noriyuki Haga 1'56.010
Jonathan Rea 1'56.576
Leon Haslam 1'56.633

Haga was the quickest man on a race tyre in the opening session, going half a second quicker than Rea and only doing one fast lap.  Rea set the early pace but was quickly demoted by the Japanese rider. Corser and Byrne made brief appearances in the top three before Byrne's Sterilgarda Ducati broke down.

Spies only did one lap to finish seventh and secure his place in the second session and Parkes managed to stay in despite suffering a small crash late in the session. Alstare Suzuki's Karl Muggeridge was the shock loss from session one, sitting in 17th and making a mess of his last available by running on at the first corner.
