Day one of this year’s first round of the Bridgestone British Masters came to a close on a wet Culham circuit on Oxfordshire but considering that rain that’s fallen over the last couple of day the track was in good racing condition, writes Dick Law.
Henry Siddiqui won both of the Amateur MX1 races from Adam Wells and Josh Bentley and goes in to day two with a six-point advantage over the rest of the class riders.
Charlie Putman with a first and a second place is in the lead of the amateur MX2’s with Oliver Benton and Corie Southwood tied in second and third just six marks behind the leader.
Greg Fisher was unbeaten in the clubman class but is only four points clear of Michael Green who chased him over the finish line in both races with Dean Hakes third.
Dominic Lancett and Todd Leadbitter were tied for the lead in the youth MXY2’s with race one winner Adam Collingo third, just two points behind the leading pair.
Sam Nunn dominated the 125cc youth class with two wins with Ike Carter second and Cullen Scott third.
Ryan Mawhinney won both big wheel 85’s with Buster Hart second in both races while Vinnie Guthrie third overall after a troubled first race.
Ollie Colmer was unbeaten in the small wheel 85’s and has a ten-point advantage over Reece Ross and Braydon Ferguson.
Billy Askew and Warren Clarke shared the wins in the junior 65’s with Harvey Antrobus third, just two behind Clarke’s second place.
The weather looks better for day two with the added attraction of a full start line of pro riders will making even more interesting.
