Kyle Ryde returned to the top of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship times in the second session of the R&G Official Test at Oulton Park this afternoon as the LAMI OMG Racing Yamaha team set the pace before a red flag.
Ryde had recaptured the leading position from Glenn Irwin on the BeerMonster Ducati by 0.299s when the session was red flagged in the final two minutes when Luke Mossey crashed out unhurt at Druids.
Tommy Bridewell completed the top three on the second of the BeerMonster Ducatis whilst Peter Hickman led the FHO Racing BMW Motorrad charge in fourth, just ahead of his teammate Josh Brookes.
Dean Harrison had a strong showing in sixth place for DAO Racing Kawasaki ahead of Leon Haslam, who had topped the earlier session for the ROKit BMW Motorrad Team. Danny Kent was eighth after a small crash at Lodge in the opening stages of the session, with Mossey in ninth. Jason O'Halloran also bounced back from an earlier crash at Shell to complete the top ten for McAMS Yamaha.
