Ian Hutchinson was back on the National Superstock grid at last weekend’s Oulton Park BSB, and the 16-tiꦯme TT winner admitted that he still gets “suckered in” by his competitive desire to race at the short circuit meetings.

Hutchinson finished 10th in the only💜 scheduled Superstock race, a solid result for a rider whoꦰ has not raced at British Championship level for three years.

Qualifying 15t💖h, he dropped back off the start, but reached ninth place before dropping back to 10th on the final lap.

“It’s been goodꦆ,” Hutchinson said of the Oulton Park weekend𝓀, speaking to wuqian0821.com.

“Obviously, everything has been late with getting the new bike, but it’s [racing Supersಞtock] a good thin🎉g for us to do.

“I went a lit🍌tle bit slower in qualifying than I did in practice, which I wasn’t expecting to do so I was further back on the grid.

“I th🔥ink the end result was good for what we need for the rඣoads.

“I get a bit suckered in and I really still want to race here, I love𝓡 it. But I haven’t done a race s൩tart in British Championship since 2022.

“So I was bad off the line, then getting pass﷽ed by loads [of riders] into turn one; I think I was 20th on lap one, [and] I got back to ninth.

“Then I thought there was another lap left but there wasn’t, so I got passed into the last cornꦫer and I didn’t block it at all because I thought there was ano♛ther lap left.

“But to finish 10th, it w🌌as a good starting point for us from where I was✅ last year.”

Hutchinson, and teammate Mike Browne, will head to the North West 200 this week with the MLav Racing team for the first 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:road racing event for the team put togeth🎀er by Michael Laverty.
