Kyle Smith has remained on top of the times at the World Supersport Thai round with local rider Decha Kraisart jumps to second place ahead of Lucas Mahias and Jules Cluzel.

Kraisart grabbed second overall on Friday practice with a lap just two-tenths behind Smith to take the top Yamaha honour off of Mahias.
After being battered in a last lap crash at Phillip Island, Cluzel eased back into action with fourth place but ahead of PJ Jacobsen on his former MV Agusta machine.
With Thai star Polamai sixth, CIA Landlords Insurance Honda rider Hikari Okubo settled for seventh ahead of Christian Gamarino and Kyle Ryde as Gino Rea nabbed the final automatic berth into Superpole 2 with tenth.
