In race three he passed Bradley Ray at the final corner on the last lap to win by just 0.075 seconds. Kyle Ryde still leads the championship on 348 points.

That last lap, Campbell into Club — the closing speed was filthy. A 0.075s gap like that gets built corner-entry to corner-exit, not in one move. Vickers still had the inside line when Ray committed. Throw in that hard-fought race two win too, and it's a perfectly built weekend. Watching that from the pit wall would've given you chills.

What did you think?

I've heard Thruxton's a high-speed circuit — didn't expect the final corner to be the decisive battle.

Ryde holding the points lead at 348 has been steady, but Vickers' double win must've cut into that gap.

0.075 seconds is razor-thin even by BSB standards — Vickers' braking precision really stood out there.

First win of the season straight into back-to-back wins — riders on a roll like that are dangerous.

Deciding it on the last corner of the last lap by 0.075 seconds — that must've been nerve-wracking to watch.

Ray clearly has the pace to run that close — makes the rest of the season more interesting.
