Danny Kent wins his first British Superbike race in wet conditions at the series finale at Brands Hatch.
For the first time in British Superbikes, Danny Kent has claimed his first victory in the Championship. The opening race at Brands Hatch was Kent's 100th race in the Championship.
In second place was fellow Yamaha rider Ryan Vickers. The OMG GRILLA Yamaha Racing rider will leave BSB after this weekend and is targeting race wins in the final two races of the weekend.
Rounding out the podium was the reigning Champion, Tommy Bridewell. The Honda Racing UK rider beat both of his rivals and cut down Ryde's lead in the Championship with two races to go.
After a terrible start to the race, Kyle Ryde managed to make his way back through the order. The OMG GRILLA Yamaha Racing rider made his way up to fourth place at the chequered flag.
For the first time in 2024, Peter Hickman claimed a top-five finish in British Superbikes. The FHO Racing BMW rider has had a horrid season but has had a solid Saturday at Brands Hatch.
Max Cook returned to the top ten as he finished in sixth place for the Completely Motorbikes Kawasaki squad.
In seventh place was the two-time British Superbike Champion, Josh Brookes. The Australian could not match his FHO Racing BMW teammate but put together a solid ride.
Lewis Rollo once again showed that he is an excellent wet-weather rider. The Aprilia rider found himself in the podium places at the start of the race. However, as the race went on Rollo dropped back through the order to eighth place.
Behind Rollo was another excellent wet-weather rider as Storm Stacey finished in ninth place. It seems like this will be Stacey's final weekend with the LKQ Euro Car Parts Kawasaki rider and he has picked up good points to start the weekend.
Completing the top ten was James Westmoreland on the Cumins by Team IWR Honda.
