Team Suzuki Press Office - August 30.

With a win and a second place at Cadwell Park today, Worx Crescent Suzuki's Tommy Hill has finished the first nine-round stage of the British Superbikes Championship with the lead on points.

In an exciting day's racing Hill, riding his Suzuki GSX-R1000, was on top form and after dominating the first race, was challenging for the lead again in the second race when it was red flagged (on the 14th lap). In the first race, rival Josh Brookes had taken the early lead but succumbed to an attack from Hill on the eighth lap. Hill then maintained a constant 1:27-minute lap pace while his rivals withered, so as to take the win by a comfortable 5.116-seconds. In the second race Hill had led for 11 laps and was trailing Brookes by just 0.230-seconds after 13 laps when the race was stopped.

Hill's point tally from the nine rounds amounts to 287 points, three more than Brookes and six more than Ryuichi Kiyonari. However, with the Showdown phase now beginning, the championship points tally taken so far is cast aside. The championship will now be decided over the final three rounds (seven races) between the six highest points scorers so far, known as the Title Fighters. All the title fighters have their championship point tally put on an initial parity of 500, to which is added only the podium points they've scored thus far (podium points have been awarded as three for a win, two for second and one for third). On this basis Hill steps forward into the Showdown as joint leader with Kiyonari on 525 points apiece.

British-manufactured Skidmarx screens featured prominently on winning machinery at this year’s Ulster Grand Prix.

Ian Hutchinson claimed first place in the initial Superbike and Supersport races, as well as the Superstock event, on the Padgett’s of Batley Hondas. He added to his tally with runner-up spot in the second Superbike and Supersport races, scooping Man-of-the-Meeting into the bargain.

Another Skidmarx supported rider with cause to celebrate was Bruce Anstey, who made history on the Relentless by TAS Suzuki by becoming the World's fastest combination of rider and machine ever seen at the Ulster Grand Prix, averaging an astonishing 133.977mph in the final race of the day. The 41-year-old New Zealander also came a close second to Ian Hutchinson in the opening Superbike race in front of the 30,000 strong crowd around the 7.401-mile circuit on County Antrim’s roads.

In the 600cc and 1000cc classes the majority of podium places at the ‘Ulster’ went to racers who crossed the line behind a Skidmarx screen in. Manufactured at their factory in Weymouth, where the company also produces its range of after market screens for road bikes, retail prices for the race-derived double bubble screens start £49.95.
