Kimura Racing’s Riley Phillips had this to say after his superb performance at the weekend ‘I couldn’t have asked for a better weekend, starting from the back because we won the last race, we lucked in with a few safety cars at the start, so we didn’t lose too much time. An unfortunate spin in the latter half of the race put us 30s behind the leaders with a pitstop and 40mins to go. After the pitstop the gap was around 25 seconds, I found more time in the car thanks to the team taking extra precious seconds in the pitstop to let the rear tyres down a few psi which ended up making all the difference, taking 3-4s a lap out of P1 and 2. A great move to seal the win at Snetterton, 2 wins out of 2.’

Riley met Sylvain Guintoli at Snetterton who is a former FIM Superbike & FIM Endurance World Champion and the two posed for a photo following the victory.

Team Olympian continue to show their class and sit firmly on top of the leader board, can they make it 3 in 3?!
