The only Manx-based motorbike racing team in the British Superbike Championships got its first podium finish at Brands Hatch this weekend (13-15 April).

The Quinnstheprinters.com BMW by IMR team are competing in the Pirelli National Superstock 1000 Class, and rider Chrissy Rouse finished fourth and second in this weekend's races.

That leaves him in fifth place in the overall standings, behind Billy McConnell, Andy Reid, Keith Farmer and Joe Collier - teammate Jordan Gilbert, who is new to the class, sits in ninth.

Other notable names in a strong field include TT stars Michael Rutter and Dan Kneen, who are eighth and thirteenth respectively.
