Easty – “ I am happy with the way I rode. After having to avoid a crash at the start, and having to take to the grass to do so, I kept my cool and just tried to put in quick smooth over takes to make up as much time as possible.

My times were as fast as the leaders, and I was stuck in the pack over taking, so I am sure I would of been able to run the pace to battle for the win, I am going to make sure my luck will change for Brands Hatch for the last round. “
