This just in from Castrol Honda's press arm ...

Castrol Honda's Colin Edwards believes concentrating on two race wins in Sunday's 13th and final round of the World Superbike championship at Imola in Italy will help him clinch a second world title.

Edwards holds a one-point lead over rival Troy Bayliss heading into this weekend's dramatic final action of the year.

"I've won the last seven races and we know how and why we've achieved that," says Edwards. "I don't see any reason to change anything, and I'll be chasing two wins to end the season on a real high."

Edwards was 1.2 seconds inside the lap record around the 3.04-mile circuit during a test session last week, in a time of 1m 48.10s.

The much anticipated World Superbike action gets under way with free practice on Friday morning followed by a one-hour session in the afternoon. Saturdayıs action includes two one-hour sessions with the Superpole final qualifying competition at 4pm.

Sunday's two 21-lap races start at 12noon and 3:30pm.
