Hodgson fourth in test

Neil Hodgson has taken the fourth fastest lap at the latest American Superbike test, on a track he’s never seen before.

The test at Infineon Raceway, in Sonoma, California, was scheduled to take place over two days but the second day was completely rained off leaving the riders with only one day on track.

Hodgson’s debut at the first round of the championship in Daytona saw him swamped by the hoards of Suzukis and this test has been no different with Matt Mladin, Aaron Yates and Ben Spies filling the top spots.

Official times:

Matt Mladin 1:36.916

Aaron Yates 1:36.76.

Ben Spies 1:36.80.

Neil Hodgson 1:36.90.

Miguel Duhamel 1:38.68.

Eric Bostrom 1:39.50.

Kurtis Roberts 1:39.50.
