McWilliams celebrates first road race victory

By  Bridgestone  0 Comments

49 year old Jeremy McWilliams from Belfast has celebrated his first road race victory a year after he made his debut at the North West 200. The former Grand Prix star was particularly pleased with this win as he doesn’t race professionally.

Jeremy has used Bridgestone tyres for the past two years in the North West 100.

He says: “The tyres worked so well in the dry conditions for qualifying on Tuesday for the Pole Position lap, I used Treaded R10’s, but for the second qualifying it was wet and then for the Race itself the conditions were more variable as it had been raining but dried up.  These are the most difficult racing conditions, weather wise so I used Bridgestone full wet tyres – the E05 tyre on the front and the E08 on the back, this choice was perfect for the conditions and I could have done two races with the front tyre in particular as it showed no wear whatsoever.”
