Nikki Coates emerged victorious in today’s ABK Beer 0% BMW Motorrad F 900 R Cup Main Event race as he saw off Robert Varey to win by 0.176secs.
In a race which had been mostly led by points leader Thomas Strudwick, Coates took the lead two laps from home and was able to open up enough of a gap to stop a last lap charge by Varey, who looked like he was itching to find a way past but was unable to do so.
Strudwick was unable to match the pair ahead and took third, with Mason Johnson fourth and James O’Mara fifth.
