Mat Mladin is once again on the pole for this weekend’s race at Infineon Raceway. The Suzuki crew of Mladin, Yates and Spies are qualified 1,2,3. Hodgson is 4 on the Ducati and the times are not that far apart but the fact remains, the big Gixxers and their riders are hard to beat. Some of the other factories have to be wondering what they can do to stop the Mladin freight train.
