Sidecar Champion Takes Island Honours

The first sidecar sppedway meeting for over ten years took place at Smallbrook Stadium last night and reigning British Champion Paul Whitelam, crewed by Richard Webb, took the honours in a close and exciting final race.

For much of it, it looked to be going the way of Mick Cave & Bradley Steer, however Cave clipped the inner kerb exiting turn four on the third lap allowing Whitelam and Webb to steam past and take Round 1 of this season's championship. With Cave retiring from the race, Mark Cossar and Sam Heath took a popular second place with Will Penfold and Ricky Pay finishing third.
