British Superbikes Latest News - Donington Park Round 9

RICHARDS WINS FROM SIXTH ROW AS KENNEDY REGAINS TITLE LEAD

Jack Kennedy, following a dramatic pair of races at Donington Park on Sunday,  regained his lead in the chase for the Motorpoint British Supersport Championship protected by Datatag title.

Kennedy won Saturday's Sprint Race as title rival Glen Richards crashed disastrously out of the lead on the opening lap. Kennedy was up to second by lap two and lead into lap 3 while a frantic scrap for position was developing with Wilson behind coming under intense pressure.  Wilson held on eventually losing out on the final lap as McConnell and Iddon both found a way through at the Melbourne Hairpin. Wilson battled back into third ahead of Iddon, but tipped off at Goddard's as Kennedy took the win with McConnell holding Iddon off for second.

In the feature race Richards put in a stunning performance to win ahead of title rival Kennedy on the final lap after fighting through from the sixth row of the grid. Wilson, riding with more purpose than in the Sprint Race, led in the early stages but again crashed out of contention. Kennedy then held the lead but Richards, who had carved his way through the field was targeting his MarTrain Yamaha rival and the final lap snatched the lead, defending hard to cross the line ahead of Kennedy with Iddon on the Oxford TAG Triumph coming home third. Richards now trails Kennedy by just ten points after this sensational performance.

Kevin Howells, MD Datatag said ‘What a comeback from Richards! To have crashed out in Race 1 and started from so far back in Race 2 any normal rider would have settled with just crossing the line. Another incredible, exciting pair of races. – this series just gets better and better!'
