Reigning British Superbike champion Tarran Mackenzie set for 2022 debut
https://www.crash.net/bsb/news/1002918/ ... 2022-debut
After missing the opening two rounds of the season, reigning British Superbike champion Tarran Mackenzie is aiming to make his 2022 race debut at Donington Park this weekend.
The McAMS Yamaha rider was forced to miss Silverstone and Oulton Park due to a broken left ankle in a pre-season testing accident but, five weeks after his accident, returned to the track on his R1 for a test at Donington last Thursday.
Mackenzie felt good on the bike and has received the all-clear from his surgeon, but will still need to pass a check by the BSB medical team on Friday morning before taking part in Free Practice for the first time this year.
“It was great to get back on my R1 last week and I felt quite good all things considered,” Mackenzie said. “I’ve seen my surgeon and had some X-Rays and he’s happy with where I’m at so I’m confident I’ll be able to race.
“I’m looking forward to pulling my leathers back on and getting out for my first race of the year.

Anyone else see today's races? The Superstock, Superbike & Supersport races were all excellent viewing .
I think the Supersport race got my vote for best race.
Just got to find Quest on my laptop now..

The only Supersport coverage i saw was a single lap that was red flagged after Josh Day had a big accident at Roberts chicane. Hope he recovers well as MSV have stated he was medically induced coma due to serious head injury before being transferred to hospitalBustaspoke wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 7:51 pm Anyone else see today's races?

There was a unusually long wait for the race to be rerun after the red flag so it was obvious that it was a serious iincident & the commentry team stated why it was red flagged..Bigyin wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 11:11 pmThe only Supersport coverage i saw was a single lap that was red flagged after Josh Day had a big accident at Roberts chicane.
