KTM Superstock Riders in Points at Brands
04 August 2008
KTM and Team KTM Maehr Superstock celebrated their best ever race weekend at the tradition-rich, 3.703 km British racing circuit of Brands Hatch with both riders Rene Maehr and newcomer Pauli Pekkanen finishing in the points. Rene Maehr crossed the line in thirteenth place while his new Finnish team-mate Pekkanen came in at fourteenth in a race run in very difficult conditions. Rain just before the race made the choice of tyres tricky and vital, a situation further complicated as the track dried out in the final stages. Maehr opted for intermediates while Pekkanen decided on an intermediate for the rear tyre and a wet tyre for the front, a choice that meant the Finnish rider lost some ground in the closing stages of the race.
