By Producing a quite majestic all round performance, Wepol Racing by Penz 13.com’s Danny Webb claimed in great style IRRC Superbike race 1 honours at Imatranajo.
Never headed in the re started race, Webb who’s S1000RR BMW this weekend sports this weekend aesthetically pleasing colour scheme in homage to Barry Sheene, ran faultless as he clinched victory by just over 9 and a half seconds.
