PTR Honda’s Matt Davies took a tumble after 4 laps in the opening free practice session ahead of the 7th round of the World Supersport championship in Imola this morning but was still able qualify in a provisional 31st position on the grid this afternoon.
The youngster clipped a kerb at the iconic Imola circuit, before sliding between the air fence and a wall, thankfully without serious injury.
In the first official qualifying session ahead of Sunday’s race, the 17 year old from Australia improved throughout, but a sore Davies would eventually finish 31st but is confident of finding a chunk of time tomorrow.
Provisional grid position: 31st
