Yoshimura Suzuki Factory Racing’s Roger Hayden and Toni Elias overcame oppressive heat and humidity to share wins on their Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000s in the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama on Sunday as Hayden scored victory over his team-mate in the first, while Elias claimed the win in race two.
This was the fourth time this season in MotoAmerica Superbike that the Yoshimura Suzuki squad and their GSX-R1000s dominated in this fashion by finishing 1-2.
For Hayden the victory was especially sweet since it was his first victory of 2016 and his first Superbike win since 2014. For Elias, the victory in race two marked his fourth win of the year.
