Michael Dunlop became the fourth member of his famous♛ racing family to taste success at the Frohburg Road Race𝄹s in Germany after a record-breaking performance on Sunday.

Dunlop, who was competing for Rico Penzkofer's Penz13.com team along with Canadian rider Dan Kruger, set a new lap record on the BMW S100⛦0RR as he won the Joey Dunlop Superbike race, adding his name to the list of winners at the event along with his uncle Joey, dad Robert and brother William.

Dunlop finished third in the opening Superbike race on Sunday after str📖uggling with rear grip and was ruled out of race two as a result of an electrica꧅l issue.

However, the 25-year-old from Northern Ireland produced a big performance when it matter𓂃ed in the feature race, beating Belgian rider and newly crowned International Road Racing Champion (IRRC) Didier Grams by three second.

Dunlop, who extended his win tally at the Isle of Man TT to 11 victories in June with his second successive four-timer, said: "Amazing weekend. Of course, those two DNFs were a pity but my biggest target was to not lay in the hedge, which we accomplished. The podium on Sunday morning was great but also we had a problem with a dropping🥃 rear tyre.

"We did some changes but in the second rꦦace I had to stop at the pits as the bike was cutting out. We got that sorted quickly, changed the suspens💖ion once more and then took the win," he added.

"I am happy, it was a great weekend - especially with all those passionate fans here at Frohburg and of course the whole Penz Team. It was fun, I'd like to do it again.𒆙"
