At round three of the Motorpoint British Supersport Championship at Snetterton Circuit, Luke Mossey on the Teccare Profile Triumph had a great weekend with a sixth in the opening race and a fantastic third in the main feature race on Sunday.
After suffering an injury at the opening round of the Championship at Brands Hatch, Luke was fully fit as he came back to Snetterton this weekend after the long break. This is the most local track for Luke being from Cambridge and always a circuit he has had strong results at in the past was eager to maintain that record. He qualified in fourth place for the opening race on Saturday and after a steady start and a couple of mistakes Luke was able to secure sixth place in the sprint race and was keen to better that in race two on Sunday.
His time in race one put him in seventh place on the grid for the main race. He got a good start and got away with the front pack. He had to fight hard all race to make up the time and his lap times gradually improved as the race progressed and in the closing laps he was reeling in third placed man Luke Jones. On the penultimate lap he made a solid pass and he was able to take a solid third place and now is lying in ninth in the Championship standings after missing three races.
Luke Mossey - "It's really nice to have come here and left with two solid results. It was hard starting the season being injured and frustrating more than anything. I was struggling a little bit this weekend just in myself and wanted to leave here feeling more confident which I have now managed to do. The break from Oulton did me the world of good as I was able to get treatment on my shoulder and that enabled me to be feeling fit and ready to go here. I made the races hard for myself and made a lot of mistakes in the sprint race to I was happy to take sixth. I was feeling a little more myself on race day but again in the race I got an average start and I had to work hard for that podium. I pushed hard and was really pleased with my fitness at the end as that is when I managed to come through stronger. I'm really looking forward to Knockhill now in a few weeks' time."
