Race: Talbot Triumphs in Thrilling Battle
The race proved to be a nail-biting affair, with Joe Talbot securing his second win of the season and significantly closing the gap in the championship standings.
Despite starting from the second row, Davey Todd showcased his skill with an impressive start, taking the lead into the first corner. Talbot and Mossey slotted in behind, engaging in a brief battle for second place before Talbot asserted himself in the position on the third lap.
The lead changed hands multiple times throughout the race, with Talbot making a decisive move past Todd on Lap Five. Todd fought back to regain the lead, but Talbot’s determination saw him reclaim the top spot on the penultimate lap. A backmarker in the closing corners added to the drama, preventing Todd from launching a final attack on Talbot.
Local favourite Tim Neave rounded out the podium in third, while Luke Mossey, who had started alongside Talbot on the front row, finished fourth. Matt Truelove put in a strong performance to climb from his 11th place starting position to finish fifth.
