Kawasaki Puccetti Racing rider Can Oncu completed an excellent Superpole session yesterday, qualifying second. Later in the day, unexpected tyre wear meant that the Turkish rider had to settle for eighth position in Race 1. Today, in cool, cloudy conditions, Oncu was back on track for the final race of the weekend.<br \/>\nHaving made a good start, Oncu was lying seventh when the race was interrupted with a red flag following an incident for another rider. The race was restarted but reduced to just six laps. As the lights went out, Can again made a good start and had moved up into the front group when a sudden hardening of the muscles in his right arm forced him to slow his pace and drop positions. The Kawasaki Puccetti Racing rider gritted his teeth and finished the race in ninth place. He will travel to Italy this coming week to have surgery to remedy this compartmental syndrome that limits performance.<br \/>\nThe next Supersport World Championship round is scheduled to take place on 19-21 April at the Assen TT Circuit in The Netherlands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KAWASAKI PUCCETTI RACING TEAM, ISB SPORT MOTORSPORT AMBASSADOR, EN WSSP BARCELONA Eighth in race 1 for Can Oncu at Barcelona The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in Spain today hosted the first race of the second WorldSSP round.
