British Superbike Championship Croft

[themo]

Double BSB champion Ryuichi Kiyonari will make a return to the grid at Croft this weekend with HM Plant Honda calling up their former BSB rider and current World Superbike rider to replace Glen Richards

[themo]

Tommy Hill is to replace Karl Harris in the Hydrex Honda team.

Karl Harris will be back on the grid at Croft after he was sensationally sacked by the Hydrex Honda team just a few days' ago.
Harris will return to Rob McElnea's garage with the Node 4 Yamaha team for this weekend's tenth round of the MCE Insurance British Superbike Championship.

This round is gunna be awesome

[patnicholls]

There've sure been plenty of rider changes this year, which has led to the points table looking pretty off with Karl Harris and Ian Lowry (who've not really been podium contenders) sitting in 4th and 5th due to injuries to others.

HM Plant should be back at the sharp end this weekend with Kiyo returning and Josh Brookes also back from injury/suspension.

I see Brookes lurking around position 9-10 at the moment........I hope he does well and regains his confidence asap........Lowry also in the mix with the regular front-runners.

Bloody hell Camiers taking the piss now isnt he?!

Kind of expected a bit more from Kiyonari, he really seems off the pace this year for some reason in what ever championship hes in.

Ain't no doubt about the talent of Camier. Top effort by Andrews and Kawasaki to get within cooey of him. Also looks as though Brookes is back on track to put in a good performance.
