Brookes Wins Pole Position at Snetterton

bsbk_swancombiJosh Brookes took his second pole position of the season at the Swan Combi Roll for Pole at Snetterton. Riders only have a little over an hour to rest before the first race of the weekend, a left over race from the Knockhill event, begins.

"I am really happy to have taken pole position for the second consecutive round. I have a good feeling about the races and it has been brilliant in free practice so I am confident ahead of the race," said Brookes. "We have started at the top of the times and have kept moving forward and that is the main thing; we are still pushing hard and there is still more to come. To be the only rider in the 1m:04s lap time is just awesome and I need to stay at the top for the races."

Brookes was at the top of the time sheets throughout all three qualifying sessions, and took the pole position ahead of Michael Rutter. Tommy Hill, and Ryuichi Kiyonari will make up the rest of row one.
