TT 2012: McGuinness domina la Superstock

McGuinness vola sull'Isola di Man

Non c'è pilota più forte di John McGuinness sull'Isola di Man. Con la vittoria nella gara Superstock porta a 19 il conto totale, con 2 successi su 2 gare disputate. Gli avversari si devono inginocchiare davanti al "Re del Mountain", a partire da Michael Dunlop arrivato secondo a circa 8 secondi di distacco su Kawasaki McAdoo ma dopo aver rimontato 15" nell'ultima parte di gara a 129 miglia orarie di media. Chiude il podio Ryan Farquhar con la sua Kawasaki KMR. La classifica prosegue con Bruce Anstey (Honda), Guy Martin (Suzuki) e James Hillier. Il nostro Stefano Bonetti ha portato a casa un ottimo 12° posto, che per i mezzi e le risorse del privatissimo italiano, può considerarsi quasi una vittoria. Da menzionare anche il 17° posto di Alessio Corradi, alla terza esperienza sul Mountain e già in grado di mettersi dietro piloti molto più esperti con la sua BMW S1000RR del team di Ravenna
