Reigning champion and series leader Rea made it two Superpole wins from two rounds as he repeated his success from the Australian round at Buriram.

Rea's time of one minute 32.957 seconds saw him beat team-mate Sykes just as he had done in Australia.

Marco Melandri repeated his third place from Australia in Thailand, beating Pata Yamaha's Alex Lowes by less than a tenth of a second.

Melandri's Arbua.It Racing Ducati team-mate Chaz Davies was fifth quickest from Michael van der Mark on the second Pata Yamaha.

Eugene Laverty (Aprilia), Xavi Fores (Ducati), Lorenzo Savadori (Yamaha) and Jordi Torres (BMW) completed the top 10.
