Kyle Ryde at 2024 BSB Oulton Park — **Wet or dry, it was Kyle Ryde (77) who came out on top in the latest British Superbike round at Oulton Park.**

In race one, Josh Brookes (FHO BMW) initially led, but he was overtaken by Glenn Irwin (Hager PBM Ducati) on lap three. Ryde, Brookes and Charlie Nesbitt (MasterMac Honda) formed a close lead group until Nesbitt crashed on lap five.

Ryde faced a brief setback when his dash cover came loose, but he quickly recovered and, along with Lee Jackson (MasterMac Honda), caught up to Irwin and Brookes. Ryde passed Brookes on lap 15 and then overtook Irwin to claim victory. Jackson finished third, pushing Brookes to fourth.

Race two ran in sodden conditions and saw Irwin return to the winner’s circle after putting a hard pass on Haslam on the final lap, which caused the former WorldSBK winner to run off the track. He would eventually survive for third place, letting Danny Kent (McCams Yamaha) through for second.

Ryde made amends in race three. Again, run in wet conditions, the Yamaha man triumphed with a 5.9-second advantage over Bridewell with Storm Stacey (LKQ Euro Car Parts Kawasaki) taking third.

The title race has Bridewell on 334 to Ryde’s 328 and Irwin third on 289.

Richard Cooper was victorious in the 12th race of the National Sportbike Championship on his Triumph Daytona 660.
