Fantastic Fourth for Ellison at Donington WSB
07 September 2008
Hydrex Bike Animal Honda rider James Ellison turned on the style with a superb performance when he splashed his way to fourth place in the second of today's two World Superbike races at Donington Park. Riding the Shaun Muir Racing 1000cc Honda Fireblade, the 27 year old from Kendal was hoping for a good result after qualifying in fifth position during yesterday's rain affected Superpole, but with inclement and changeable conditions once again dominating, any hopes of a good result in the opening race were dashed when he got a poor start which resulted in a collision with Yamaha rider Noriyuki Haga.

World Stage Beckons for Ellsion
01 September 2008
After sitting out the last round of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship at Cadwell Park last weekend, due to a wrist injury sustained in training the week previously, Hydrex Bike Animal Honda rider James Ellison will be back in action to take his place as a wild card entry at this weekend's Hannspree World Superbike Championship meeting at Donington Park. Up until Cadwell, the 27 year old from Kendal, who has been one of the revelations of the season on his return to BSB after four years, had scored points in every round aboard the Shaun Muir Racing 1000cc Honda Fireblade, and despite attempting to ride at Cadwell, he had to admit defeat when a ligament injury prevented his participation on the grounds of safety.

Following on from his successful Ulster Grand Prix meeting last year, Hydrex Bike Animal Honda rider Guy Martin was hoping to get back in the swing of things after a less than successful season but once again, the great British summer had other ideas.

Another Oulton Podium for Ellison

Following on from his superb podium finish at the same track back in May, Hydrex Bike Animal Honda rider James Ellison repeated the feat when he took the 1000cc Shaun Muir Racing Honda Fireblade to another second position at Oulton Park in Cheshire today. Starting from row two on the grid, the 27 year old from Kendal in Cumbria made some radical changes to his bike overnight and in the early stages of the opening race, led the field as he mixed it up with the Championship front runners. Going into the final laps, he was well placed but eventually had to settle for second place as the handling of his bike deteriorated.

After developing the brand new traction control system on his Honda CBR1000 Fireblade, Ellison resorted to his original machine prior to the first 30-lap race where steady progress through the field saw him catch up with the leading bunch but he couldn't quite close in and had to settle for fifth position at the flag.
