Press release: After the sunny day at the Saturday qualification today it was typical British weather with showers. The race was split in two races after a red flag in the 14th lap of the race. For Danny Webb the race was short because of a crash in the chicane in the first lap together with five other riders. Randy Krummenacher had a good first race but had an innocent crash and could participate in the second race over 5 laps. The second race Krummenacher finishes just outside the points on an 18th position.
During the first race there was some light rain dropping down and there were some wet spots at the track like the chicane. Danny Webb did not survive the first lap and was involved in the crash with several riders. Some of the riders rode over Webb’s Aprilia and the race was over for the little British rider.
Randy Krummenacher had a good first race and climb up from P21 to a nice 10th position. Because of the wet spots at the track Krummenacher crashed but picked up the bike and continued the race on P20. The second race over 5 laps was totally wet. Krummenacher couldn’t find a good feeling in this conditions and finish just outside the points on an 18th position.
Randy Krummenacher (18th):
“The first race started good. With a reasonable start I could manage to ride in the top 10. Unfortunately I crashed in the 14th lap because the rain started to drop more heavy than before. Luckily the red flag came and we had a new race in the wet for 5 laps. This race wasn’t good for me. I was right in the top 15 in the second lap but couldn’t get the right feeling with the track conditions. I finished just outside the points. Now we start the second half of the season and my goal is the finish the rest of the races in the points.”
Danny Webb (DNF):
“I just don’t have words for this. Again a crash and no points. It seems that this has to happen always to me. Several riders crashed out in the chicane the first lap and some of the other riders hit my bike and I couldn’t continue the race. The only good thing today is that my mate Scott Redding scored a podium. Good job for him! We have a three weeks break now and my second half of the season it has to be better and score a lot of points.”
