Ian Lowry showed true grit and determination at Cadwell Park, coming from a lowly qualifying position of 16th to eventually finish eighth on the tight and twisty Lincolnshire circuit in the Supersport class. Having crashed heavily during free practice at over 120mph, it was a brave effort from the battered and bruised 21-year-old.

Aussie Cameron Donald joined Lowry in the sick bay at Cadwell with a stomach bug, but didn't let it deter him, eventually finishing in 11th place. This was Donald's last race in the British Superstock Championship for 2008 as he returns to Melbourne on Monday.
