Kyle Ryde reclaimed his lead as Glenn Irwin fellꦆ out of contention and went on to wi🐟n Sunday’s first race at Knockhill.

The LAMI OMG Yamaha rider found his way to the front early on with a pass under polesitter Jason O’Halloran. The Yamaha duo had Irwin loo🌃king for a way past and a fortunate door opened for him as the Austrailian made a move for the lead, with the man from Carrickfergus sliding in front of the duo on lap 24.

The BeerMonster൩ Ducati rider saw his race unravel just three laps later when, fractionally wide into the final hairpin, he slid out of contention.

Back in front, and showing he had the pace to win after topping warm-up, this time Ryde eﷺnsured he held off the♌ second Ducati to stake a claim, leading over the line by 0.903s for his first ever win at the Scottish track in his 101st BSB start.

Behind Tommy Bridewell scored a rare podium at Knockhill from beyond the second row on the grid๊. Staring ninth, the #46 had work to do and wasted no time 💎in finding a way forward. His pass on Ryan Vickers brought him in touch with the leaders but his teammates bad luck helped him to second after putting in the hard yards.

Putting his poor start to the ꩲseason behind him Jason O’Halloran continued his fightback, and took the final podium spot for McAMS Yamaha. With plenty of effort from the #22, you could not accuse him of settling for track position, but every time he risked a move to lead it seemed to result in a slip down the order.

Off the podium Ryan Vickers seemed to still be spurred on by his podium return last time out at Donington and was a solid🐟 fourth for the OMG Yamaha team, ꦐclear of the riders behind.

They were lead over the line by Christian Iddon, his third co🎃nsecutive 🐽fifth place for Oxford Products Ducati.

Leon Jacജkson continued🐠 to see improvements incoming on his Cheshire Mouldings Kawasaki, but after reaching the front of the chasing group could not bridge the gap to the riders ahead.

He pulled away fr☂om Storm Stacey, who claimed a best fini🅠sh of seventh, going one better than in race one for Starline Kawasaki.

A second behind was Tom Neave, equalling his best finish of the season for Ho𒐪nda.

TT blues as on-track racing returns

None of the riders who featur🔯ed in the TT seemed back to their track best on their BSB return to Knockhill. Josh Brookes was the top of those who made the Isle of Man trip in ninth for FHO Racing BMW.

TT podium regular Dean Ha𝄹rrison finished twelfth for D༒AO Racing Kawasaki, as he struggled to adjust back from the adrenaline fuelled road race. 

Most notably quadruple race winner, Peter Hickman (FHO Racing BMW Motorrad) was nowhere nearܫ contention. After gaining the Senior TT win in his first love he had been off the pace in race one finishing 16th, and was 18th in race two before pulling into the pits and calling it a day.

Leon Haslam is racing with a dislocated shoul🍨der, but came 🉐close to pipping Josh Brookes at the line, instead completing the top ten for his Rokit BMW Motorrad Team.

Danny Buchan picked up a massive twelve places after starting at the back of the grid fol🌌lowing his absence in race one for a superb twelfth for Synetiq BMW Motorrad.

The remaining🐻 points went to Jack Kennedy (Mar-Train Yamaha), back on track after his huge warm-up crash for 13th, Luke Mossey (Tactix by Lloyd and Jones BMW) in 14th and Jack Scott top rookie as the only one to finish in 15th for Rapid CDH Racing Kawasaki.

The only other rider to se𓆉e the cheqꦉuered flag was Hector Barbera, with only 16 finishers.

Crashes and injuries

Glenn🍌 Irwin was no the only rider making an early exit.

Charlie Nesbitt, Danny Kent🅠, Josh Owens and Max Cook all also failed to finish.

Bradley Perie has been discharged from hospital today following his fall in the sprint race he was sent 𒆙for additional assessments and scans. He was declared unfit for the remainder of the Knockhill weeke🐬nd.
