After leading a Yamaha 1-2 into turn one, Ray and Rydeꦰ were demoted to fourth and fifth as Skinner took the lead from Glenn and Andrew Irwin. 

Eager to write the wrongs of race two, Ray immediately set abou🔴t moving back to the front as he got through on Ryde f🔯or P4.

That started a mini𝓀 drop for Ryde as he went from fifth to seventh in the space of two corners. 

The second chan𝓰ge for the lead took place on lap four as Irwin got through on Skinner, while a lap later Storm Stacey went down at Brooklands. 

Making it an Irwin 1-2; Andrewꦕ got through on Skinner at Luffield (lap six)🐓 as Jason O’Halloran also got ahead of Ray for fourth. 

Ryde’s drop continued to💧 take place on laps ni𓂃ne and 10 as Christian Iddon and Danny Buchan also got ahead of the two-time podium finisher this weekend.

Struggling to keep pace witꦺh his brother, a train of riders led by O’Halloran began to form b🍷ehind A. Irwin. 

With his team-mate going backwards, Ray started to instead move forward following overtakes on Tommy Bridewell and Skinner. Ray 😼then made another move on O’Halloran for third in what was quickly becoming a mid-race charge from the two-time BSB winner. 

As Ray lined up a move on Irwin for second, the 24 year-old then came close to a highside on t꧋he exit of turn four. 

Looking to regroup and challenge Irwin once more, Ray suffered yet another huge moment coming onto the start-finish straight. This came a ♔lap after O’Halloran and Buchan made significant contact coming into Luffield. 

Lap 22 and Ray was eventually t༒hrough on Irwin ♊as he immediately gapped the SYNETIQ BMW rider. 

Ray began closing in on G.Irwin with just five laps 𓂃to go, but with the Honda rider keeping a strong pace out front, Ray ultimately ran out of time. 

Making it 🀅aꦅ double Irwin podium was Andrew as he held off Skinner, O'Halloran and team-mate Buchan for P3 on the final lap.

Bradley Ray crashes out from a sure-fire British Superbike race two win 

Although the pace set by Ray was proving very hot, just like 𒁏the bright sunshine around Silverstone, G. Irwin🃏 began closing in on the leading trio of Ray, Ryde and Skinner with 16 laps gone. 

With exceptional traction being a big reason for Irwin’s race one success, the Northern Irishman seemed to have the same advantage over his rivals as he went around the outside of Skinne𓃲r at turn one. 

Eager to make 🎉it two from two, Irwin then got ahead of Ryde going into turn four with ten laps remaining. The Honda rider, who was losing ground to Ray, was granted his wish of leading the race as the Yamaha rider dramatically crashed out at Luffield. 

Ray had gradually been building his lead throughout the🃏 race - extending his advantage over Irwin to nearly a second before the f🅘all. 

The former Suzuki and BMW rider gave it everything to try and sa🔯ve the front end crash, but was ultimately unable to do so.
