Josh Brookes hasn’t been so lucky in these first two opening rounds of the British Superbike championship, he crashed out spectacularly at Paddock Hill Bend in race 1 at Brands Hatch and was forced to sit out race 2.
In the second round that took place at Oulton Park this weekend, Brookes took a sixth place in race 1 and in race 2 was chasing down Stuart Easton but at Britten’s chicane had this new and again highly spectacular crash, he lost the front of his Suzuki GSX-R1000 and the bike then becomes airborne and barely misses Easton.
Easton would later say, “I was so lucky when Josh’s bike came over me; it was like a plane crashing down on me.
