Honda Racing's Leon Haslam believes this weekend's Aragon WorldSBK round is the team best opportunity for a good result so far as he and Alvaro Bautista have tested twice at the fast Spanish circuit.

Top speed has been a big plus point for the new Fireblade this year and Haslam is hoping that for the first time, the bike will only need setup tweaks not major surgery.

“I’m looking forward to the weekends in Aragón. It’s probably the best opportunity we have, because we’ve already tested there twice and so we understand what’s required," said Haslam.

"So hopefully we can go into the weekend focusing more on fine tuning, rather than testing big things. Our pace in testing was quite good, though we still need to work on some details in the hotter conditions.

"But I’d say it’s one of our best chances to be fighting for the top spots.”
