Team Suzuki Press Office – July 10.
Bennetts Suzuki’s Tommy Bridewell took two top-10 finishes at Snetterton, recovering from a difficult qualifying to take eighth and 10th in the two races aboard his Bennetts Suzuki GSX-R1000 today.
The fifth round of the MCE British Superbike championship saw Bridewell take a good haul of points away from the Norfolk venue, despite a tricky qualifying session which saw him start the opening race from the fifth-row of the grid.
A strong start in race one allowed him to climb to as high as fifth place at one stage, before tyre-wear curtailed his charge and eventually saw him surrender positions to cross the line in eighth place.
Race two started with Bridewell moving up to ninth position and part of a 20-wheel train of riders all looking to move towards the front of the race. Unfortunately, he struggled to maintain his early race pace, and was awarded 10th place when the red flags came out, bringing the race to a premature end.
