Hawk Feeling Strong for Final
Round
Bennetts British Superbikes, Round 13, Brands Hatch
GP
Hawk Kawasaki riders Craig Coxhell and Peter Hickman
and gearing up for the final round of the Bennett British Superbike
this weekend at Brands Hatch Circuit, Kent, 29th September - 1st
October. Not only is it the final round of the 13-round series but the
two Superbike races are worth double points after the cancellation of
Mondello Park earlier in the year.
The two riders will both be on board the ZX10-R 2006
specification bikes, the first time that youngster, Hickman, has
ridden this bike all season. Hickman's Kawasaki ZX10 will also have a
number of special features which will be displayed at Brands this
weekend.
It is set to be an epic battle with all Championship positions to be
decided at the technical 2.62-mile circuit. One of the toughest tracks
on the calendar, the expected 30'000 fans will not be disappointed
with what is set to be one of the most exciting race weekends all
year.
23-year-old Craig Coxhell commented "It's been a long season and
although I have struggled I have had some decent results over the
year. The injury at the start of the year knocked me sideways a little
and it seemed to take a fair while before I felt fully fit again. I
have struggled at some circuits but Brands is a track I know
reasonably well so I'm hoping that a positive result won't be too much
to ask for."
Rookie rider, 19-year-old Peter Hickman said "I've had a great year
and learnt so much at each round. I'm happy with the progress I have
been making through the season and I have consistently been in the
points at the last few rounds. I've enjoyed my time and hope that I
can continue to further my progress next season. I'm looking forward
to Brands and trying not to think about the double points!"
