British Superbike star Michael Rutter has taken provisional pole for the Macau Grand Prix, in his quest to take a record breaking seventh title on the streets at Macau. Michael was in determined mood and set the pace at 2mins 31.098secs with his Ducati.

Unfortunately, Guy Martin aboard the Bike Animal Honda fell and was knocked unconscious, ruling him out for the rest of the weekend - due to FIM regulations, Guy cannot take any further action as he now cannot race for seven days. This is an unfortunate end to Guy’s 2008 season, as he has had to suffer one of his worst seasons to date.
