2019 BSB
Round One – Silverstone
Friday Free Practice
The McAMS Yamaha begins BSB 2019 strongly with young Tarran Mackenzie setting the initial benchmark ahead of Team WD-40 Kawasaki’s Claudio Corti and Scott Redding, but Josh Brookes was gaining momentum after setting the pace in FP1.

Jason O’Halloran went to the top of the times ahead of Mackenzie and Corti with 20-minutes remaining but it was Dan Linfoot who climbed the order into second in the final five minutes for the Santander Salt TAG Yamaha team to split the McAMS Yamaha team-mates with Luke Mossey inching into the top five.
Mossey was then on the move and he moved into second, just adrift of O’Halloran who continued to improve his pace with Christian Iddon again showing the pace of the new Tyco BMW to edge into the top five.
In the final three minutes Mackenzie improved again; moving into second where he would stay until the end of the session as his team-mate had the edge with Mossey completing the top three for OMG Racing Suzuki.

Josh Brookes held fourth place to lead the Be Wiser Ducati charge while Scott Redding finished day one in eighth place on combined times.
In Superstock 1000 a huge field of 52 riders took part in two practice sessions with Buildbase Suzuki’s Richard Cooper topping proceedings ahead of Alex Olsen and Billy McConnell. Levi Day was 15th while Brayden Elliott was 28th.
In the Supersport ranks it was Jack Kennedy on top ahead of Integro Yamaha team-mate Brad Jones and EHA Yamaha’s Alastair Seeley.
