“At the British Hillclimb Championship at Shelsley Walsh, Matt Ryder extended his championship lead while Alex Summers showcased his sensational pace, each securing a run-off win and setting a 23.01s climb up the famous Teme Valley hill.
Ryder’s 23.13s climb was a commendable performance, with Summers delivering a standout run of 23.01s in his DJ Firestorm to clinch his first win of the limited 2025 season.
In a thrilling showdown, Ryder responded to Summers’ challenge with a rapid 23.01s run of his own, securing victory and maintaining his impressive form alongside his friend and competitor.
Despite mechanical challenges and strong competition, Ryder solidified his points lead with podium finishes, maintaining a competitive edge in the championship standings.
Summers’ stellar performance served as a reminder of his championship-winning potential, leaving a lasting impression on a day filled with intense competition and remarkable displays of skill.”
