Andy Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 CAS Honda rider Josh Coppins produced a startling return to World Championship action today at a warm and atmospheric Matterley Basin for the British Grand Prix. The eighth round of the season initiated the second half of the 2006 campaign and a rousing 39,000 crowd cheered Stefan Everts, Kevin Strijbos and Coppins to the podium. The Matterley Basin circuit was long, elongated and dry as the usually unreliable English weather had in fact been cooking the terrain for the past two weeks and planning restrictions meant that the track had to be hastily constructed in seven days. The layout divided opinion inside the paddock with some commenting negatively on the course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
