Castletown resident Jonathan Rea will start from sixth on the grid in today’s ninth-round of the World Superbike championship.
The 25-year-old secured a second-row starting position for the two races in the Czech Republic.
At one point it looked even better with Rea setting the second fastest time for race two, only for the session to be red-flagged.
