Irwin wins emotional opening race at Oulton Park

Glenn Irwin gained an emotional opening Bennetts British Superbike Championship BikeSocial Dash race at Oulton Park, withstanding race-long strain from his teammate and title rival Tommy Bridewell, who made a expensive mistake on the ultimate lap which dropped him to fourth place.

The BeerMonster Ducati teammates arrived at Oulton Park for the Showdown decided to proceed the legacy of PBM Staff Proprietor Paul Chook, who sadly handed away earlier this month.

The pair continued their bid for a ninth title for the workforce by snatching the main two positions on the opening lap of the BikeSocial Dash Race forward of Kyle Ryde, Storm Stacey, Leon Haslam and Lee Jackson.

Stacey crashed out on the opening lap unharmed at Lodge, however Haslam and Jackson had quickly moved forward of Ryde as he shadowed the BeerMonster Ducatis, led by Irwin.

Irwin held the lead till the ultimate lap when Bridewell grabbed the lead at Cascades with the pair side-by-side and nothing between them. Irwin and Jackson had been in shut competition, with Irwin regaining the lead at Island Bend.

Bridewell remained decided and he was inside placing distance of Irwin, however he made a expensive mistake into Hislops Chicane for the ultimate time, outbraking himself to run on and he was compelled to rejoin in fourth place.

Irwin took the chequered flag to say an emotional victory for the workforce, with Jackson simply 0.390s adrift and Haslam returning to the rostrum in Cheshire.

Bridewell’s fourth place means the benefit on the prime of the standings was halved, with now simply 7.5 factors between the teammates. Josh Brookes was fifth as he was capable of transfer forward of Ryde and Christian Iddon.

Jason O’Halloran was eighth on the McAMS Yamaha with Peter Hickman and Charlie Nesbitt finishing the highest ten.
