Raced in scorching temperatures and on an increasingly rough and dusty circuit, riders faced not only fierce competition but also the demanding conditions as the Culham track became deeply rutted and physically challenging throughout the day.
In qualifying, Dafydd Davies set the fastest time ahead of Tom Day and championship leader Harry Walker.
Veteran Carl Bunce rolled back the years by grabbing all three holeshots in the British Championship races, proving he still has plenty of speed despite competing against riders half his age. However, Walker was in outstanding form, fighting his way to victory in all three motos after close battles with Bunce, Davies and Day.
Walker’s clean sweep earned him the overall win ahead of Dafydd Davies in second and Carl Bunce in third.
It was also great to see Paul Winrow return to racing, with the experienced rider enjoying a strong day’s competition before taking victory in the National Expert class.
