After 18 races Jack Kennedy is back on top of the British Supersport Championship after winning a race at Oulton Park.

The British Supersport Championship has seen the Championship lead change once again after Round Nine. This weekend Jack Kennedy regained the Championship lead for Honda Racing UK after winning Race One and finished fourth in Race Two.

The Irishman ended up overtaking Macadam Triumph Racing rider Luke Stapleford in the standings. This weekend also saw Ben Currie fall further behind in the Championship standings.

Despite overtaking Stapleford in the standings both the Honda and Triumph rider are joint on points with 349 points each.

After the weekend Kennedy said: "Winning the race yesterday was exactly the result we needed to put points into Ben and Luke and bring ourselves further ahead in the championship. Then today was really all about managing the risk, to make sure we brought it home, and to maximise our points relative to our championship contenders rather than those we were racing with.

"I managed to get the better of Ben again which is important, but then Luke came past. I had a move lined up into Druids, got the run out of the corner and everything but then I saw the yellow flag waving so I couldn’t have a go. It is what it is, I won the race yesterday with the red flag, he got the better of me today with the yellow flag, that’s racing.

"I’m disappointed with a fourth but it’s a good result in the circumstances. We head to the next round now full of confidence in all conditions certain that they are going to play a factor in the races still to come."
