RIZLA SUZUKI HUNTS OULTON PODIUMS
 After
scoring its first podium of the season at Silverstone last
weekend, Rizla Suzuki travels to Oulton Park for this Bank
Holiday Monday's fourth round of the Bennetts British Superbike
Championship at Oulton Park in Cheshire, wanting more of the
same.
Chris Walker won the hearts of the fans at Silverstone with
his gutsy performance in the opening race to finish third
and taste his first champagne of the year. He followed it
up with a strong fourth in the next race, demonstrating how
competitive the GSX-R1000 really is and lifting the entire
Rizla Suzuki team's spirits in the process.
"Standing on the podium was just brilliant," smiled
'Stalker'. "We have shown what we are capable of and
have been getting more competitive every time we have taken
to the track. I'm looking for another step forward at Oulton
Park and approach the meeting happy that we have my Rizla
Suzuki performing better than ever before."
Team mate Cal Crutchlow matched his best-ever British Superbike
finish with a seventh place at Silverstone in the second race.
He was unlucky that the race was stopped early as his lap
times suggest he could have challenged the riders in front
for a top-six finish if it had gone full distance.
Crutchlow said: "I'm buzzing with excitement
about Oulton Park; it is one of my favourite circuits and
I have won several times there in the junior classes in the
past. My Rizla Suzuki is well set-up for me and I really want
to show what I am capable of - I'll be doing my best to get
into the top six on Bank Holiday Monday."
Superbike racing starts at 1300 on Bank Holiday Monday, May
7th, at the picturesque, flowing, 2.69mile Oulton Park circuit
in Cheshire.
