At round five of
the Motorpoint British Supersport Championship at Brands Hatch GP, Luke Mossey
on the Teccare Profile Triumph had a steady weekend with a sixth and eighth
place respectively in the two races.
Luke had a few
issues with the bike in the really hot temperatures on Friday during practice
and was a little cautious in the mixed conditions during qualifying on Saturday;
he ended up qualifying in 13th place for the Sprint race. He got a
good start and worked his way through the pack in the early stages on the race
putting in some strong lap times, finally finishing the race in sixth
place.
This placed him in
fifth place on the grid for the feature race on Sunday; he got a good start and
was making in-roads on the leading pack when he had a huge moment coming out of
the final turn at Clearways whilst lying in fourth place. This dropped him back
through the pack and took a few laps to regain his momentum and he crossed the
line in eighth place. He is now lying in seventh in the overall Championship
standings.

Mossey - "Although my
results don't show it I'm actually fairly happy with the results today as this
is the first time in a couple of years I have two races finished at Brands and
left without injury so that's pretty cool, I hope now that's me over my Brands
Hatch demons. It's a shame as I do really like the track, I made a mistake in
race two today which dropped me back several places and I just wasn't able to
get back into a rhythm. I am really looking forward to getting to Thruxton in a
couple of weeks as it's a circuit I really enjoy riding."
