BSB Rd 1: McDougall fifth after first Supersport Cup qualifying session
05-04-2008
With a damp track greeting the British Supersport Cup riders as they went out for this morning's opening Qualifying session at Brands Hatch, Beowulf Racing wisely decided to wait for a dry line to emerge before joining the proceedings.
Taking to the track in the last quarter of the 40-minute period, Beowulf rider Pat McDougall completed six laps of the 2.3-mile Grand Prix circuit to post a time of 1:36.656. This places Pat in fifth position in the Cup series and 29th overall.
A second session starts at 1.20pm this afternoon. Check out our Results section for a full report this evening.

The great race at the new Portimao circuit brings an end to our season in World Superbike Superstock 600, with riders Gino Rea and Dan Linfoot.
The season has been a success with Gino third and Dan fifth in the championship standings following three victories and five additional podiums in total. The results have also acted as a stepping stone to the riders for next season, with both securing high profile, career progressing rides for 2009.
Thank you for all of the emails, calls, texts and visits throughout the year. It has been much appreciated.
