After a difficult Race 1 in wet conditions, Gardner and Aegerter came to life during the WorldSBK Supe꧑rpol💧e Race as they began to challenge for a top five result.

Following a move on 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea for fifth, Aegerter was positioned behind the leading quartet of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Ruben Rinaldi, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Lowes, before contact was made by Gardner on🐲 his inside.

• Lowes ꧒apologises after costly mistake, Razgatlioglu ‘said it was꧅n’t my fault’ 
• Bautista sets new recor✅d - ‘Maybe we can cha✃nge the name to Baustralia’

Sorry for his mistake which led to both riders hitting the deck and failing to restart, Gardner said: "It’s been a complicated weekend, not just for the races, b🌟𒀰ut because of the weather. We didn’t expect to have a wet race in Race 1 and I struggled a lot in the wet yesterday. 

"I was hoping for dry [conditi🐟ons] today and we had a good start to the Superpole Race and I felt quite strong to be honest. But then I made a mistake in turn four an𒊎d went in too deep and made contact with Domi. 

"I would like to apologise for that. It’s been a long time since I’ve taken another rider down. It doesn’t feel good, but anyway. It was a sham𓂃e that we lost a good position for the race and it’s something I had to learn with this new format. 

"Ultimately , this is what cost us in the m꧙ain race and with the Long Lap as well we lost too much time. I tried to come back but I destroyed the ꦓrear tyre."

While Gardner struggled to recover from his Long 🌸Lap penalty, Aegerter made impressive progress late on in Race 2, so much so, the two-time WorldSSP champion got past Rea on the final lap.  

"It was an emotional weekend, starting, of course, with the amazing Superpole session where I qualified on the front row," added Aegerter when analysing his first weekend as a Superbi💟ke rider. 

"Today we had dry conditions and were confident we had a good pace; unfortunately, in the Superpole Race, I was𒁏 taken out while fighting for a top position. That’s racing; these things h🤪appen, and we move on. 

"It wasn’t easy to start from 10th in the last race, but we still managed to make a good recovery. We learned a lot, and the team worked well this weekend.  🎐We are ready for Indonesia,🙈 where we hope to be fast once again."

Although Aegerter managed to claim P7, a better starting 𓆉position could have seen him fight for P5.

But despite the incident with Gardner whﷺich cost him dearly, the 🎀Swiss rider was keen to sweep it under the rug so that both riders can help take GRT closer to the front of the field.

Aegerter said: "As a team result it’s very bad when you crash out because of your teཧammate. He came to apologise and this is racing. For sure, I would prefer that we were both in the top five which we could achieve. 

"We are sti♈ll teammates so we will work hard to be more close to the top. It’s okay."
