FINAL ROUND OF UK SUPERCROSS SERIES,
LG ARENA - BIRMINGHAM
Honda celebrated a fantastic 1-2 in the Lites class in the British Supercross Championship series which reached its finale last night (Saturday) at the LG Arena in Birmingham.
The packed arena was treated to a full evening of action packed racing with Buildbase Honda rider Nico` Aubin storming to wins in both the Lites and Open heat races, seeding himself straight into both main events.

LITES CLASS
With the battle for the Lites title between the two Honda riders Aubin and Bradshaw, both riders could only manage mid-pack starts and as the race unfolded, by the half-way point, the two riders were still in 5th and 6th place, climbing all over the leading pack.
Searching for the smallest gap to pass, Nico was forced out wide, allowing Bradshaw to steal valuable metres and dive in front of the French Buildbase racer.
At the flag, less than a bike length separated both riders but it was Bradshaw who had a wheel in front and took the 2012 British Supercross title.
Results – Lites Class
1 – Adam Chatfield – (Honda)
2 – Jack Brunell
3 – Neville Bradshaw - (Honda) - Champion
4 – Nicolas Aubin – (Honda)
5 – Ashley Greedy
6 – Damon Strydom |

OPEN CLASS
Aubin and Bradshaw again failed to nail the start of the Open final and both riders were forced to work through the field for their respective 5th and 4th place finishes. The race was lead from start to finish by Championship winner Tom Church.

2 – Jack Brunell
3 – Adam Chatfield - (Honda)
4 – Neville Bradshaw - (Honda) - Overall Supercross Champion
