Max Biaggi has almost perfect weekend in Brno

 
Max Biaggi had a great weekend at the FIM Superbike World Championship round in Brno, Czech Republic. After clocking the fastest time on Friday, the Aprilia rider took his Dainese leathers and his Factory RSV4 to his first victory of the season in Race 1.
A rebounding Ben Spies took the win in Race 2, ahead of Max by 0.213 seconds.

After this weekend, Biaggi sits in 5th in the WSBK points standings, with 4 rounds to go. Great job for the Roman Emperor for the first year on his new Aprilia.
