2018 R&G Rookies’ Trophy – Round 3 – Oulton Park
It was a case of double delight for R&G in the Superbike class at Oulton Park as JG Speedfit Kawasaki’s Leon Haslam took both race wins around the Cheshire circuit, moving to the top of the Championship standings in the process.
Further success came in the Supersport category as Gearlink Kawasaki’s Ben Currie took a brace of second places whilst in the British Motostar races Asher Durham took a podium in the main class with Thomas Strudwick doing the same in the Standard class. In the Ducati Cup, Rob Guiver took a pair of podiums, whilst Levi Day took victory in the second race.
Rookies Trophy
A fantastic ride from Team WD40’s Mason Law saw him claim his first Bennetts British Superbike Championship points at Oulton Park and named our R&G Rookie of the Meeting in the process. In the Championship standings however it’s still Tarran Mackenzie and Carl Phillips who remain the top rookies whilst Tom Oliver and Bradley Perrie lead the way in the Supersport class.
The top two rookies in each Championship at the end of the season will be put forward to a panel of judges who’ll then pick the top three overall to receive a host of prizes from R&G, Pirelli and LS2 crash helmets. The current two leading rookie riders in each class after Oulton Park is as follows;
