Thruxton BSB: Weaving takes debut Stock 600 win

NMT No Limits Kawasaki’s Jordan Weaving finally took the chequered flag to pick up his debut Pirelli National Superstock 600 win, taking full advantage of a coming together at the Club Chicane.

In a frantic and manic scrap a handful of riders got the opportunity to lead the race and on the run into the Club Chicane the order changed lap after lap.

With four laps remaining and a group of eight riders fighting for the win, George Stanley was forced to sit up his Kawasaki after a slight nudge by Tom Oliver.

Stanley ran into the back of Brad Jones, who had lead the race for a number of laps, and the pair crashed out. Aero Legends Yamaha’s Tom Ward also got a firm punt to the rear of his machine but managed to stay on and settled into third place.

Meanwhile, at the front Weaving was able to pull clear and despite pressure behind from Moto-Breakers Kawasaki’s Keenan Armstrong and Ward, he held a half a second advantage all the way to the chequered flag.

His first win and fourth podium of the year saw Weaving jump to second in the title chase and cut Carl Phillips’ championship lead down to 28 points, after the Northern Irishman limped home in eleventh.

Armstrong and Ward battled right down to the final lap for second place and despite Ward pulling alongside and Armstrong and seemingly having the better drive, Armstrong grit his teeth and outbraked Ward to roll around the outside of him and collect his best finish of the year.

Allied Racing’s Dan Stamper came out on top in a battle for fourth place, getting the better of Sam Thompson and Tom Oliver.

Motrac Kawasaki’s Milo Ward got his best result of the year, coming across the line in seventh. Rounding out the top ten were Ashley Buxton, Liam Shellcock and Lewis Rollo.
