Gilbert and Long spin out of sixth place
25-05-2008
The wet, cold and miserable conditions got the better of the G-Force racing pair of Simon Gilbert and Richard Long in the first round race of the FIM Sidecar World Championship at Donington Park today.
Running as high as fifth position after a 12th-place start, the duo span off at McLeans corner on lap eight whilst lying sixth.
StoneBaker's Dan Linfoot had been providing pre-race assistance to the two riders.

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.
