The team members along with the many other trophy winners
enjoyed rubbing shoulders with some of motorcycle racing's biggest names. HM
Plant Ducati team mates from 2003 James Toseland and Chris Walker introduced
the evening with brief anecdotes from Neil Hodgson's birthday party the
previous evening and then went on to present the silverware. James, 3rd in
this season's World Superbike Championship, has secured a factory Ducati
ride for next season aboard the Fila Ducati vacated by Neil Hodgson
following his move to Moto GP next year. Chris Walker has also changed his
seat for next season by signing with the Foggy Petronas team again in World
Superbikes. With the former team mates and arguably two of the sport's most
popular figures
presenting the trophies a thoroughly enjoyable evening was had by all. Stu,
narrowly missing out on a trophy this season after his incident with close
rival Andy Wimpenny, was 4th in the main championship with 148 points and
applauded the trophy winners. 3rd in the championship, with 155 points, was
Andy Wimpenny who was presented with the third place trophy and
2nd placed Daniel Williams, with 192 points, received the runner up
trophy. Winner of the Formula 400 championship with 195 points, Ady was
presented with his champion's trophies and received the Spondon Engineering
Trophy which carries many prestigious names of the past and dates back 31
years to 1973. Ady also received the R&S Performance Formula 400 Trophy
courtesy of Shaun Webster of R&S Performance Centre in Worksop who supported
this season's championship. |
