Rapid 🎶Solicitors Kawasaki rider Shane 'Shakey' Byrne admitted he was feeling 'much better' after the triple MCE British Superbike champion took a win in race two at Brands Hatch after crashing out of the first.

Byrne went down at Hawthorn asও he chall♒enged eventual winner Josh Brookes for the lead in the opener, but the 36-year-old made amends with a typically commanding success in the second to earn his 49th BSB victory.

His Rapid Solicitors 🐻Kawasaki team had to rebuild his ZX-10R after the bike sustained ?15,000 worth of damage in the incident, but Byrne delivered the goods in style.

"I feel much better now than what I did after the first race, that's for sure,"♏ said Byrne.

"I had a plan for the first race and it was all com🅠ing to fruition but no sooner had I got the lead from Josh Brookes than I was down.

"The team worked🎃 really hard in between races to get the bike ready and to bounce back with a win is brilliant.

"I made a good start and realised the importance of the win so a biꦏg thanks to the team, that victory's for them."

Byrne now leads the champions🗹hip by 21 points from Samsung Honda's Alex Lowes, with Josh Brookes a further poin🔯t behind in third.
