Fresh from its successful weekend at Knockhill the STP Motorsport team had a hectic week including a test at Cadwell Park with the MV Agusta F4 1000 followed by a winning return to Castle Combe with Victor Cox on his Yamaha R1. Using the opportunity to get some valuable track time the STP Motorsport MV Agusta team attended the annual MV Agusta Owners track day at Cadwell Park. For most of the day the weather was dry, allowing Chris Burns to put in some fast laps and get some good feedback ahead of this weekend’s race meeting at the Lincolnshire circuit.
Etchilhampton rider Tommy Bridewell scored his first win in three long years when he took a sensational victory in today's Castle Combe Grand National meeting in front of a bumper local crowd. Riding the 1000cc Naturally Best Suzuki the 19-year-old Wiltshire rider followed up a battling fourth place in the opening leg with a fantastic victory in race two to send the local crowd home happy.
