Tommy Bridewell held off his MCE Insurance British Superbike Championship rivals this morning at Oulton Park to set the pace during the warm up session ahead of today's opening race for the Tyco BMW team.

Bridewell starts second on the grid for race one and this morning he continued to push forward to keep Shane 'Shakey' Byrne and Josh Brookes behind him at the end of the 15 minute session.

Pole-sitter Brookes had set the early pace in the session, before Bridewell toppled him from the top with six minutes remaining on the clock and the Milwaukee Yamaha rider was pushed back again to third place with a strong run from Byrne in the closing stages.

James Ellison moved up the order to fourth place on the JG Speedfit Kawasaki as he bids to add to his impressive double win from Brands Hatch last time out, narrowly ahead of Buildbase BMW's Ryuichi Kiyonari.

Stuart Easton was sixth fastest in warm up this morning as he prepares for his front row start in the opening race at the Cheshire circuit with Howie Mainwaring also pushing into the top eight for the Quattro Plant Kawasaki team.

Martin Jessopp had his strongest session of the weekend in eighth place as he pushed ahead of Australian contenders Jason O'Halloran and Josh Waters who completed the top ten.
