Redding Triples Up at Donington Park
S
cott Redding (Ducati) took his first win in the
British Superbike Championship in race one at
Donington Park, May 25-26, then promptly backed
it up with the race two and three victory to storm
into a six-point lead in the championship.
Redding—at the track of his 2008 125cc Grand
Prix win in which he became the then youngest-
ever Grand Prix winner at 15 years old—was in
imperious form at Donington, with his race-one
victory marking him as the 50th rider to seal a BSB
race victory.
"This is massive," said the Be Wiser Ducati rider.
"I believe in myself again. It's something I've found
difficult to do in recent years. I told everyone that I
should be winning at Donington, so I didn't look at
it as pressure because I felt good."
Redding took the race-one win ahead of team-
mate Josh Brookes and Honda Racing's Xavi
Fores. He backed it up in race two to head home
Fores and fellow Ducati rider Tommy Bridewell,
and in race three took the win from Bridewell and
round one winner, Yamaha's Tarran Mackenzie.
Redding now leads the series on 115 points from
Bridewell on 109, Mackenzie on 108, Brookes (74)
and Fores (70). CN
MAG Announces Changes
M
otorsport Aftermarket Group
(MAG) announced a new
and significant change in manag-
ing the multi-brand organization
to its 1500 employees.
"We've asked each of our
senior leaders to focus 100% of
their efforts on creating value,
delivering growth, and expanding
the entrepreneurial mindset with-
in their business unit and their
brands. When we do this, we
will become more nimble, more
aggressive and have a greater
focus on the market and on our
customers. We'd rather have a
portfolio of successful companies
with complete independence
than force them to integrate,
which turned out to be detrimen-
tal to several of our brands," said
Hugh Charvat, CEO of Motors-
port Aftermarket Group.
"While our business units will
continue to collaborate where
helpful, there will be no corpo-
rate mandate to do so. And we'll
ensure complete independence
