WSBK Donington - The return of the British wildcards

[FourWheelDrift]

FP1 was a washout with times all over the place but adding to the usual WSBK line up this weekend are:

Leon Haslam : Puccetti Kawasaki
Luke Mossey : Pedercini Kawasaki
Mason Law : WD-40 Kawasaki (BSB Spec)
Bradley Ray : Buildbase Suzuki (BSB Spec)
Gino Rea : OMG Suzuki (BSB Spec)

Making 11 home riders. Odds on a top 10 lockout are reasonable

and to bolster the numbers further some Italian called Canepa on another Pata Yamaha but it's best to stay away from him he can lash out unexpectedly at your brake lever.

Edited to add BSB specs
