Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport Championship - Round Seven - July 19 - Mallory Park

Chris Martin followed up team-mate Ben Wilson's win at the previous round by storming to victory in the Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport Championship race at Mallory Park.

The Gearlink Kawasaki duo were formation flying at the front of the pack, with Martin then able to gradually edge an advantage over his team-mate on track in the wet conditions.

Ian Hutchinson was quick off the line and was able to put himself third for the Padgetts Honda team, giving him the best result of the season.

For fourth there was an all-Australian tussle between title contender Billy McConnell on the MAP Raceways Yamaha and Brendan Roberts on the NW200 Coca-Cola Zero Yamaha.

The pair who previously battled together in the Virgin Yamaha Cup were swapping places in a bid for supremacy, with McConnell able to put himself ahead and hold it to the line.

Championship leader Steve Plater was only able to manage a seventh place for the HM Plant Honda team, but still holds an 11 point advantage in the overall standings ahead of Brands Hatch.
