NGK-sponsored motorcycle ace Chrissy Rouse heads to Brands Hatch this weekend (July 23-25) for the Pirelli National Superstock championship looking to build on his third place in the standings.

After a disappointing start to the series at Oulton Park, defending champion Rouse achieved two third places at the last round at Knockhill to lie in joint third position.

He said:

“There are lots of positives to take. I feel we are improving the bike all the time and my starts have been ace, going from eighth to third in race one and third to first in the second.

“It was great to lead for a good chunk of the second race, getting some good TV coverage for all of our sponsors, but I didn’t have enough to challenge for the win in the closing laps.

“Truthfully, there were around 15 riders who had almost the same pace so to come away with 32 points, I’m well happy with that. Big thanks to everyone who has sent nice messages and now on to Brands Hatch.”

Ignition and sensor specialist NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd has a long and successful pedigree in two-wheel racing, helping teams and riders to numerous titles.

NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd Marketing Manager Mark Hallam said:

“I’m sure that Chrissy had been buoyed by his performance at Knockhill and will be looking to continue this upward trajectory at Brands Hatch this weekend.”
