Garrett Gerloff, riding the Kawasaki ZX-10RR, has climbed to 8th overall with 110 points in the World Superbike Championship — a sharp jump from last year's 15th and 88 points. He scored 10 points with a 6th place at Donington Park. 'Qualifying was 11th, just 0.2 seconds off 5th, but I feel like we got the best out of it,' he said. The oldest machine on the grid has already logged 12 top-9 finishes this season.
