Glenn Irwin returned to winning ways in the second Bennetts British Superbike Championship race at Snetterton in a restarted race to take his fifth win of the season for Hager PBM Ducati as Tommy Bridewell and Christian Iddon completed the podium.
The race began in dry conditions and Storm Stacey got the launch off the line to lead the pack into Riches for the first time on the Team LKQ Euro Car Parts Kawasaki, however Kyle Ryde took the lead into Wilson. However, Irwin was on the attack and he moved to the front and then was pushing to break the pack.
Irwin and Ryde had an edge over the chasing pack with Ryan Vickers, Iddon, Tommy Bridewell and Danny Kent. It had been an impressive start from Bridewell as he carved his way up to third by lap five from his 16th place grid start.
However, the BMW Safety Car was deployed when Louis Valleley stopped with a technical problem and the bike caught fire, but whilst the Herock Racesafe marshals dealt with the incident the rain began to fall and the race was red flagged.
The race restarted over five laps and Ryde got the holeshot to lead on the opening lap but as the pack reached Agostini, Irwin made his move to take the lead, before edging out an advantage of 1.487s to the finish.
The battle for second though went Bridewell’s way as the reigning champion gave himself work to do after dropping down the order at the start to fifth on the opening lap, moving back through to second by lap three.
Iddon then grabbed third on lap three with a move at Brundle to nudge Ryde back into fourth ahead of Andrew Irwin and Danny Kent. Vickers meanwhile ended a lonely seventh with Jason O'Halloran, Charlie Nesbitt and Josh Brookes completing the top ten.
