2014 ULSTER GP: JOHNSTON FASTEST IN SUPERSPORT AS WEBB CRASHES HEAVILY

Lee Johnston topped the timesheets in the second qualifying session for Saturday's two Metzeler Ulster Grand Prix Supersport races although the session was stopped twice, firstly due to a heavy spill involving Danny Webb at Joey's Windmill and then later on when riders were failing to slow for yellow flags after Russ Mountford crashed at the hairpin. Johnston's lap on the Pirtek Honda of 126.825mph saw him better William Dunlop's speed of 126.579mph set on Wednesday evening with Michael Dunlop's lap from yesterday also keeping him on the front row. Dean Harrison moved up a place to fourth after lapping today at 126.434mph with Bruce Anstey slipping back to fifth but Guy Martin was another rider to improve and he moved up from ninth to sixth with today's lap of 125.759mph. Dan Kneen's strong form continued and he'll line up in seventh place at the head of the third row where he'll be joined by Derek McGee and Ivan Lintin. Keith Amor completes the top ten just ahead of James Cowton and Ian Hutchinson. Overall Leaderboard
