Kennaugh has been whining again about the performance of the Triumph.
Tough shit.

Loved Glen's comments about Kennaugh being the best rider, just a pity he was on a slower bike 
Kennaugh had the fastest bike earlier in the season and obviously Map Embassy have developed the Triumph further.

They obviously thought they had nothing to gain from racing in the World series at this time as unlike Kennaugh neither of the Map Embassy riders are likely to be looking for a WSS ride
and they obviously used the 3 week break to make the bike a lot faster instead of getting distracted by a race they didn't need to do.

You'd have to say, Embassy made the right call. I'd love to have seen Glen mixing it with the WSS, but not if that meant they would be less well prepared for the BSS rounds. For a team like Embassy, competing in their first ever BSS season and with no plan to race WSS next season, you can see why they might decide to channel all their efforts to getting the BSS championship in the bag. Looks like they've just about got it!

Seems Triumph are recognising their achievements, with special in-field parking for Trumpy riders at Silverstone

Excellent result, well done to Richards and Triumph. Yes it obviously made sense to wrap up a National title rather than risking a lot for no real return racing in one WSS race.

Agree, also the fact he went for the win instead of just picking up points
