Conor Cumins sets new record at Ulster GP

Kawasaki insurance customers in Northern Ireland saw a blistering victory for Conor Cummins, who stormed ahead to take the chequered flag at the weekend's Ulster Grand Prix.

After winning the opening Superbike race two days earlier, Cummins took his first international race win in a thrilling battle against rivals Guy Martin, Bruce Anstey and Ian Hutchinson.

The McAdoo Kawasaki rider finished the race not only in top position, but also setting an incredible new record with an average speed of 133.28 mph on the last lap.

Speaking to the Belfast Telegraph, Cummins commented: "On the last lap I just managed to nip past a slower rider at Joey's Windmill in front of Hutchy and hold on to take that first international win.

"The McAdoo Kawasaki was awesome and it is all credit to them that I pulled this win off."

Meanwhile, William Dunlop won the 250cc race ahead of younger brother Michael, with Paul Owen taking a well-deserved third position.
