ELLIOT Vieira wrapped up a successful weekend at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, following up Saturday’s Liqui Moly Pro Sport Bike victory with a second place finish on Sunday in the same class of the Bridgestone Canadian Superbike Championship (CSBK).
Vieira and Sebastien Tremblay rode away from the rest of the pack on Sunday though the Guyanese could not launch a move on the winner.

Vieira was quoted as saying, “Tremblay rode the ass off that Suzuki! I had the draft on him, but he was so consistent in the first half of the track,” the race one winner said. “It sucks to not win again, but it’s the best we could do today.”
On Saturday, however, Vieira was untouchable.
He returned to the venue where he won last year to continue that dominance and winning more than 14 seconds clear of championship leader David MacKay

The Guyanese took over the lead from MacKay on lap two and continued extending that till the chequered flag aboard the GP Bikes Ducati.
Apart from winning, he registered the Italian brand’s first ever win in the Sport Bike ranks aboard the V2 Panigale this year.
The series moves on to Round Five on September 15-17 at Shannonville Motorsport Park in Ontario. (Stephan Sookram)
