08:06. Big harmless fall of Suzuki n ° 1 at Dunlop. Mathieu Lagrive unscathed brings the bike back to the stroller and sees his podium hopes soar. The # 94 Yamaha retains the lead, followed by the # 2 Suzuki and the # 38 Yamaha.
08:06. The wind has swept away the clouds and the morning sun bathes a still wet track of the night when the Suzuki n ° 1, in 3rd position, falls heavily at the entrance of Dunlop. Mathieu Lagrive, unharmed, is off for a long stroller session. "I don’t know what happened, I did a straight ahead but the bike should be able to start again", explains the driver who arrives at the pit at 8:48 am to the applause of his team.
And indeed, 21 minutes later the machine comes out like new. Vincent Philippe takes over, but the No.1 Suzuki has dropped to 16th place…
08:45. In the lead, the No. 94 Yamaha has just passed from the hands of William Coste to those of David Checa. "It’s so hot that I’m not even tired !"exclaims William at the end of his stint:"the bike does not seem to have a problem but we still wait to go to the end"…
For Christophe Guyot, it is still too early to be satisfied with managing his lead: "there are still many hours to race, Dominique Meliand (SERT manager, Editor’s note) and I know it"…
