Glenn Irwin dominates British Superbike qualifying and race one!
Irwin 🎃produced a defensive masterclass to pip Ryde and Ray to the first Bennetts British Superbike win of th🍒e year.
After securing the first pole of 2022 than♍ks to a new lap record, Irwin led into turn one from both Rich Energy OMG Yamaha riders.
Struggling o🦹ff the🐲 line was British Superbike returnee Leon Haslam, as the 2018 champion went from fifth to tenth.
As Ray made a move on his team-mate Ryde for second, Haslam’s first r♐ace back ended early following a technical problem on lap six.
Fourth and showing the ability to keep ൲pace with the front three was Rory Skinner - wasn’t the case for Jason O’Halloran and Christian Iddon, who were involved in a tussle for fifth that was costing the pair time to the leaders.
Following Haslam’s early retirement, IForce BMW rider Dan Linfoot was next in encountering issues as he slowed on the exit of turn one🐭.
With 13 laps gone Skinner began losing touch with the front three as Irwin kept up a searingly hot🍸 pace.
Repaying the favour from lap three, Ryde then made his way back past Ray for second place on lap 19✤.
Although the National circuit makes up just a quarter of the traditional Silverstone layou♕t’s length, tyre preservation 💯remained key in the battle for victory.
The top three continued to stretch clear as Skinner became the first to signi𒀰ficantly struggle w🀅ith grip.
While Irwin remained the leader, fellow Hon🍬da Racing UK rider Ryo Mizuno retired with two laps to go.
Despite intense pressure from both Ryde and Ray over the final two laps, Irwin held strong🌜 for the firs𓃲t win of the 2022.
