Police to probe deadly accident at British Superbike's Oulton Park event.
The deaths of two motorcycle racers are currently being investigated by the police after an incident involving 11 bikes during the British Supersport Championship race at Oulton Park. The severity of the crash necessitated significant medical attention, leading to the cancellation of the rest of the British Superbikes Championship season's opening round. The accident occurred on the first lap at Old Hall Corner when one bike lost control, causing a chain reaction among riders. Owen Jenner and Shane Richardson tragically lost their lives, while several others sustained injuries. Supersport is a category below Superbikes in motorcycle racing, featuring bikes closer to standard production models. The police are looking into the incident on behalf of the coroner, and teams and sponsors have expressed their condolences and sympathies to the families and friends of the affected riders.
