Round 5 of Bemsee's 2025 season was held at Cadwell Park in Lincolnshire 05/06 July 2025. Cadwell Park is often referred to as a "mini Nürburgring" owing to it's tight, yet flowing nature and the changes in elevation, most notably "The Mountain", a sharp rise before Hall Bends, and a popular viewing location due to bikes lofting their front wheel on the climb, or even going airborn off the crest.
Both Leigh, #8 and Tom, #74 were in action this weekend, with Matt supporting riders on the Friday practice day.
Leigh
Leigh qualified 10th, finishing his first race of the weekend P8, with a P9 in the second of Saturday's Thunderbike Sport races.
Sunday was a bit of a wash-out weather wise, the rain was so heavy that racing was suspended until such time as the standing water had subsided, Leigh's first race was in challenging conditions, and he came in P15, the second race of Sunday, Leigh brought home a P8.
Tom
Tom qualified 5th for the 12 lap race on Saturday, finishing 4th behind Paul Bloomfield, who'd joined the team the weekend before at Donington Park for the 6 hour endurance race.
Sunday, as mentioned before was a bit of a wash-out, Tom got P3 in the first of his Sunday races, and P2 in a storming second race; you wait all season for a podium and then two turn up on the same day - Well done Tom!
Next Bemsee round is 30/31st August at Snetterton in Norfolk.
