James Toseland lost his third his third place in Superpole qualifying session at Nurburgring after leaving the pitlane for Superpole 3 before the session had been officially started.
The Yamaha Sterilgarda rider left the pitlane ten seconds before the green light and has been penalized five grid positions and will take off in both races from the second row in eighth.
“I’ve really enjoyed riding around the Nurburgring, it’s pretty new to me as I’ve not been here for eleven years.
Unfortunately I exited the pit lane apparently on a red light, I didn’t do that intentionally but I’ve been penalised so my third position grid start has been taken away and I’ve been put back to eighth on the second row of the grid” said Toseland.
“The first two rows are really important here because the first corner is very tight.
I’m obviously disappointed about that but the officials have taken that stance, I can’t really argue with it I just have to comply, that’s the rules.
I’m still looking forward to two good races tomorrow.
