Snetterton BSB: Brookes felt victory was within his grasp

Tyco Suzuki's Josh Bro🤡okes feels 🥀he was knocked out of his rhythm and denied the chance to challenge for a victory at Snetterton.
Brookes, who travels to Japan today for testing ahead of𒐪 the legendary Suzuka 8-Hour race at the end of July, twice finished on the rostrum in second and third places.
However, the Aussie reckon🐭s anඣ opportunity went begging to claim the top step of the rostrum yesterday.
"I did feel I was able to have a go at the wins in both races, but the Safety Car coming out seems to upset my rhythm at times ♕and in the second race I made a bit of a mist♉ake when the win was possibly within my grasp," said Brookes.
"I'm now looking forward to testing aꦉt Suzuka this week before the 8-Hour at the end of the month, but as soon as I get back my focus will be back to Brands Hatch where we need to get as many podium credits as possible and close the gap on 'Shakey' [Shane Byrne] ཧand Alex [Lowes]."
Brookes is third in the championship standings on 172 points bﷺehind Lowes (175) and Shane Byrne (207).
