24.09.08: Finish line in sight at Silverstone
Races come thick and fast now as we approach the penultimate round of the British Supersport Series at Silverstone this weekend.Glen Richards currently sits at the top of the Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport Championship with a 46 point lead over second placed Hudson Kennaugh.
Although it is mathematically possible for Glen to win the Championship this weekend with a race to spare, the entire team has refused to talk to about the prospect of winning it a Silverstone - until it is won.
Glen said; “I am treating this as just another race. Of course I know in the back of my mind that it is possible to tie it up this weekend and I will be keeping a close eye on Kennaugh but all I have to do is make sure I finish in a strong position, hopefully with a podium and if other results or events mean that we take it at Silverstone then so be it. My preparation doesn’t change.”
Meanwhile Team manger Myles Schofield politley refused to be drawn on the subject “We have a race at Silverstone this weekend which, as like every other round this year, we will be trying to finish as high as possible in. It’s that simple.”
