Pedercini Kawasaki rider Roger Lee Hayden had his very own fan club tribute on the grid at Misano Adriatico, three red, white and blue American supporters dressed in bizarre garb - one of whom was none other than Ben Bostrom, seven times a WSB race winner.
Ben had come to Italy to see his friend race, and was appropriately - if outrageously - dressed for the hot and sunny weather.


Roger Lee and his team put in another weekend of great effort, but could not score points. He stated afterwards, "In race 1 we chose a soft tyre but after only few laps the bike start to slide a lot because the tyre was probably too soft. It was really a difficult race and probably the most disappointing of this season. The bike was completely different to the one I used during the qualifying and so the only thing I could do was try and finish the race."


He continued, "For race 2 we changed the tyre choice and immediately the bike was a lot better and I was able to race closer to the official Kawasaki riders."
