Team Suzuki Press Office - May 7.
Suzuki GRANDys duo riders Marko Jerman and Andy Meklau raced to first and second places in the opening round of the Alpe Adria Superbike Championship at Adria Raceway in Italy on Sunday.
GSX-R1000-mounted Jerman - who broke the track record with a time of 1'14 .911 - also finished runner-up in the Superstock 1000 class with team-mate Meklau fourth.
The Polish GRANDys duo team also scored a podium in the Superstock 600 class as Daniel Bukowski raced his GSX-R600 into second position.
Jacek Grandys - Suzuki GRANDys duo Team Manager:
"I am happy with such a good start to the season. There's a lot of high-points to take away and the next rounds will be held on tracks that are well known to our riders and I hope that we will again be at the front."
Marko Jerman:
"I am glad that my title defense began with a victory. I felt good on the short track and there was a chance for two wins, but I am really happy with this result. The season is long and everything is still ahead of us."
Daniel Bukowski:
"I do not remember when the last time I rode on the new circuit for me and I forgot how much fun it is learning a new track. We are returning from Italy very positive for the upcoming season and ready for the next round. I'd like to thank the whole team, who as usual did a great job."
