WorldSBK

American Beaubier will partner Lowes for the ACERBIS-sponsored UK races. The 23-year-old Californian convincingly won the 2015 MotoAmerica Superbike Championship title in only his second year in the competition, beating four-time champion and Yamaha teammate Josh Hayes, with eight race victories to his name. Beaubier is excited about crossing the Atlantic and the prospect of racing on British-shores - having previously competed at the Derby circuit during his 125cc GP career - and will be looking to get to work quickly on Friday as he acquaints himself with the WorldSBK-spec YZF-R1 as practice begins at 10:15 local time.

not bad, he made it into SuperPole 2, with #9 in the combined times from FP1 and FP2. Quite a ways behind Sykes though for time:
