Positions were exchanged at almost every corner resulting in Tom completing the 12-lap affair two places ahead of his brother.

A quick turnaround for the 21-year-old twins sees them travel to Donington Park for the penultimate round of the series this weekend.

The Superstock 600 riders have a free practice on Friday at 9am followed by first qualifying at 2.10pm and final qualifying on Saturday at 11.45am.

The 14-lap race takes place on Sunday at 12.35pm.
