Gino Rea strikes again in the wet to claim a seco🎃nd British Superbike win of the weekend, while championship leader Tarran Mackenzie re👍tires with a mechanical problem.

With conditions taking a turn for the worst shortly before race t♛hree was scheduled to begin, a lengthy delay followed.

After 40 minutes went by, the final race of the weekend finally got underway wit💎h Tarran Mackenzie keeping the lead into turn 𒅌one. 

The same great start that Mackenzie enjoyed couldn’t be said of secꦺond placed Danny Bucha🌊n, as the BMW rider dropped to 15th. 

Race winner in similar wet conditions yeste🥀rday, Gino Rea, led at the end of lap one beꦐfore drama in the championship battle ensued. 

Series leade﷽r M🀅ackenzie slowed on the exit of the Foggy Esses after his McAMS Yamaha seemed to cut out. 

Just as he did in the ope🦄ning race of the weekend, Josh Brookes crashed between turns five and six. 

Buchan then retired with what seemed liꦑke yet another mechanical or electronic༒al issue. 

Out front, Rea continued to leaཧd from Chriꦗstian Iddon and Lee Jackson who had over nine seconds advantage over Tommy Bridewell.

Rea and Iddon 🐠then began to pull clear of Jackson who mome🥀ntarily got caught up behind lapped traffic. 

Whi♈le Iddon tried and at times did close the gap to Rea, a move for the lead never materialised as the Buildbase Suzuki man he♏ld on for his second race of the season.
