2012 Silverstone WSBK Saturday Round Up: More Rain

It feels like it could be getting tedious to open what seems like every World Superbike round up this year with talk about the weather, but it has become a major factor in qualifying, if not racing, in 2012.

Every session of Superbike qualifying and practice this weekend has been hit by rain, with sessions being either getting wetter or getting dryer. Consistency has been lacking in all but this afternoon's free practice, with the track either getting wetter or dryer, with standing water hampering several sessions. The rain was tempered with sunshine that burned the light covering off quickly but left stretches of water in the heavier areas, giving the track uneven conditions that caught quite a few riders out in Superpole.
