Josh Day Takes His 5th Consecutive Ducati Cup Win At Silverstone
Race 1 Josh Day (Host-it.co.uk Racing Team) lined up on pole for this Saturday’s race but it was Symcirrus Motorsport's Elliot Pinson who took the lead during the opening stages before losing the front of his bike and crashing out unhurt. Josh Day took the lead once more, but his namesake Levi Day (BPS Racing) was not going to let him make a gap. The two raced closely throughout the race, with Levi Day out at front in the closing stages. Backmarkers came into play around the Silverstone’s short National circuit and ultimately it was Josh Day who took the chequered flag just 0.068s in front of Levi Day. Ed Best (Symcirrus Motorsport) continues to impress in his rookie year. He may have had a lonely race in 3rd, but stepped onto the podium once more, replicating his previous Ducati Cup race result from Snetterton. David Shoubridge, riding the AH Performance Panigale V2, finished 4th, with Craig Neve (CN Racing) crossing the line in 5th and John McGuinness (Lund Group) 6th. Rounding out the Top 10 finishers were Alberto Solera (Solera Sport), Carl Stevens (Freeman Harris Racing Ducati), Sam Middlemass (Salus / Albany) and Dijon Compton Race 2 Josh Day lined up in pole again for Sunday’s race, but this time out it was Levi Day who led the pack during the opening stages.
