JOSH Brookes has done the double at Silverstone this weekend after taking the top step once again in race two and extending his advantage ahead of the triple-header final at Brands Hatch in two weeks’ time.
The opening lap saw Shane ‘Shakey’ Byrne hit the fnort of the pack from pole position ahead of Dan Linfoot and Peter Hickman. James Ellison was also in close contention once again. The JG Speedfit Kawasaki rider was on the attack passing Hickman first and the Linfoot in the space of four corners.
Ellison attempted to make a move on Byrne, but the defending Champion forced his way back ahead before Ellison took the lead on the third lap.
Milwaukee Yamaha’s Australian Brookes started from the second row and began to pick off his rivals one-by-one and had moved through to fourth before making a move on both Linfoot and Byrne to move from fourth to second.
Brookes dived ahead of race leader Ellison on the run through Maggotts to Becketts, whilst Linfoot also moved up to second ahead of Ellison with Laverty, Byrne and Iddon for company.
It was Ellison who dramatically dropped down the order due to a grip problem from which he ended the race down outside the points in 17th place. Linfoot and Laverty exchanged paintwork for second place, but the Honda Racing rider had the initial edge before the Tyco BMW rider emerged ahead on the final lap.
Iddon celebrated his best performance of the season in fourth place for Bennetts Suzuki, whilst defending champion Byrne finished fifth.
Richard Cooper won his battle with Peter Hickman for seventh position with Lee Jackson and Luke Mossey completing the top ten which featured five different manufacturers and nine different teams.
