Location: RAF Portreath, Redruth
Event: 5 May 2012
Report: Snowdon Sports
Third in the series opener, Adam Bright (Primal Europe) stepped up to take the honours in the second round of the Cornish Series on the exposed 1.3-mile cliff top airfield circuit at RAF Portreath, Redruth.
The 25-year-old winner, from Bideford, profited from the bad luck of team-mate Rob Wilcox, who was 40 seconds clear and heading for a solo victory when he punctured with three laps to go and lost his place at the head of the elite field.
Wilcox chased hard after a wheel change, but was unable to haul back the leading trio and had to settle for fourth place.
