Tom Neave took a thrilling victory in the Pirelli National Superstock race at Cadwell Park, taking the win by 0.7s. It was Chrissy Rouse who grabbed the holeshot, storming through from the third row of the grid. However, Tom Neave had soon found a way through by lap three before a red flag for rain on lap four saw the race stopped.
It was a repeat performance on the restart, with Rouse grabbing the holeshot ahead of Alex Olsen, but it was a five rider battle throughout the opening laps. Taking the lead on lap five, Olsen was able to edge away from the pursuers. However, a fast charging Neave moved through on the penultimate lap to take the win ahead of Olsen and McConnell.
