Hyundai/Molson British crews show the way at Brands Hatch against the world
The largest F1 Sidecar grid seen in the UK for many years lined up to compete for World and British Championship honours over the Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit on Sunday. Not only was the fantastic eighteen-lap race witnessed by a huge track-side crowd, but also by a completely new TV audience. Under an agreement reached between Eurosport, and the Freeview Channel Quest, the first World Championship motorcycle event was screened “live and free to air” into UK homes, for many years since the advent of subscription television.
Reigning World Champions Tim Reeves and Greg Cluze made the most of pole position, but hot on their tails, in perfect conditions, came a screaming bunch of Hyundai regulars headed by Andy Peach/Charlie Richardson (L&W Kawasaki). They had grabbed the slot from the AOS Be-Wiser pair of Ricky Stevens/Ryan Charlwood at Paddock Hill Bend. Half-way round lap one, Reeves hand was in the air with a problem. His gear lever had broken, and he made a rapid return to pit-lane to effect repairs.
A strong third-place ride by John Holden/Ashley Hawes (Silkolene Barnes Racing Suzuki) came to an abrupt end when they capsized heavily on lap twelve. This had been the best ride of their season. The scrap between the other British Championship runners intensified, as they showed the rest of the world what top-class F1 sidecar racing could be like. Finns Pekka Paivarinta and Kirsi Kainulainen were having a terrific battle for lap after lap with Ben Holland/Lee Watson (Finning Cat Kawasaki) and the Express Tyres pair of Steve Kershaw/Rob Wilson. Behind them, more frenetic action between Roger Lovelock/Aki Aalto (BB Bikeshop BMW) and Tony Brown/Lee Cain (Paymundo.com Kawasaki) ensured action was provided all down the field. There was so much going on, including a galloping Tim Reeves heading into the gravel, and Paivarinta up-ending his outfit on a fast section, even the lap-scorers were confused. Eventually a result was declared with a red flag stopping proceedings.
After sixteen racing laps, nine outfits were declared non-finishers, with the best of the FIM crews finishing in seventh place.
