A race long fight at the front involving 5 riders raged in Spain this afternoon as Michael van der Mark (Pata Honda World Supersport Team) became the 2014 World Supersport Champion in style by winning at Jerez as his closest championship rival Jules Cluzel (MV Agusta Reparto Corse) crashed out of the lead at the end of the penultimate lap.

Completing the podium were the Intermoto Kawasaki Ponyexpres team mates PJ Jacobsen and Florian Marino.

Jack Kennedy (CIA Insurance Honda), Kev Coghlan (DMC-Panavto Yamaha) and  Lorenzo Zanetti (Pata Honda World Supersport Team) rounded out the top 6 while former champion Kenan Sofuoglu (San Carlo Puccetti Racing) who had to start from the pit lane rode an incredible race to claim 3 points at the flag and had the accolade of the fastest lap.

Matt Davies (Aark Racing) finished 20th on his return to the World Supersport championship.
