  • 1541 - Jason tried hard but Jamie kept it together and brought it home again for another win.  A dominant performance from the Yamaha men and Jeremy Crowe braving it with some nasty hand injuries to score some good points despite struggling for fitness. Encouraging form for Holland on the new CBR600RR, a lot more expected to come from that machine as the season progresses...
  • 1540 - Jason O'Halloran has a sniff.... The gap to Jamie down to 7-tenths as they get the last lap board but Jamie will respond....
  • 1539 - Greedy just saved a near major highside in his quest to run down Waters and keep Holland at bay...
  • 1537 - Jamie's quickest lap thus far in this race was a 34.27, O'Halloran a 34.33, Crowe 34.57 and Holland the only other man to crack a 34 with a 34.64. That is a very encouraging little statistic for the Honda men
  • 1536 - O'Halloran has the gap to Jamie down to just under a second now and enjoys a two second buffer over Crowe.  Holland right on Greedy now
  • 1535 - Holland through on Staring now, has a bit of ground to claw back on Greedy and Waters to mount a challenge for fourth
  • 1534 - The CBR600RRs rode by Staring and Holland still have plenty of room for development, running standard headers here this weekend and remarkably stock, they should have some more go fast bits before Winton
  • 1533 - Something flapping around on Staring's bike near the throttle, perhaps something come adrift on his gloves but it is waving about in the breeze. Holland looking for a way past so he can put a challenge on Waters and Greedy
  • 1531 - Holland right on the tail of Staring now and tailing that second pack... Jamie leads O'Halloran by 1.2 seconds who in turn has managed to stretch a gap of 7-tenths over Crowe.  The second pack is a further seven seconds down on that leading trio
  • 1530 - Luckless Zac Davies has had to retire again with some sort of drama after showing some encouraging speed. Better luck for Winton!
  • 1529 - Holland up to seventh now, he has picked up his pace now and might even catch Staring, Greedy and Waters, he has plenty of time to do it,  I might wager on him getting up to fourth place by race end if he hasn't toasted his tyres in making his progress through the pack
  • 1527 - Jamie maintaining his lead at a little over 1.5 seconds while O'Halloran and Crowe continue their tussle over second place. Waters leading that second pack from Greedy, Staring and Henderson
  • 1526 - Holland has worked his way up to ninth place from that back of the grid start
  • 1525 - Staring has worked his way closer to that second pack of Greedy, Waters and Davies but the top three are way ahead now
  • 1523 - Waters through on Davies now. Jamie leads his team-mates by 1.5 seconds already
  • 1522 - Jamie breaking away from Jason and Jeremy already then it is Davies, Greedy, Waters, Henderson and Staring
  • 1521 - Supersport men away now, Yamaha 1-2-3 as per normal, Jason, Jamie, Jeremy the three Js on the three Yamahas up front
  • 1520 - Russell Holland didn't make it out for the formation lap and was put to the back of the grid for the final Supersport bout
