| Another sad loss
BSB fans will already know of the sad loss of Ollie Bridewell who succumbed to his injuries received during practice at Mallory Park. He was a young (22yrs old) gutsy rider with a great future ahead of him. Condolences to his family. This from Visordown: BSB rider Ollie Bridewell has died following an accident at the first free practice session at MalLory Park. Bridewell, a Vilvaldi Suzuki rider was riding in the opening session of the weekend's racing when he was involved in an incident at the Esses. Prior to the accident, the session was shortened to 20 minutes due to heavy rain at the Leicestershire circuit. The MCRB official statement reads: 20 July 2007 - Issued 15:30 During the Bennetts British Superbike Championship first free practice at Mallory Park, an incident occurred at the Esses section of the circuit. The rider involved was Ollie Bridewell. Initial evidence shows that he lost control and fell from his machine making a heavy impact with the surface and then the Recticel “type A” protective barrier. He sustained critical head and neck injuries. He was treated initially at trackside and then at the circuit medical centre by the BSB Medical Team, where he succumbed to his injuries. The incident is being fully investigated by the MCRCB and the relevant authorities. On behalf of MCRCB Events and the BSB community we extend our profound sympathies.

Extremely sad news Since I ditched the Sky TV we can't watch the BSB, so anyone who has been watching (Alex) did they show the 125's? If they did, how did Jenny Tinmouth from Ellesmere Port get on? Spoke to her during the week after she'd high-sided at Oulton Park (Druids), but she was OK and looking forward to Mallory this weekend |
