Kneen denied victory on final lap

Dan Kneen and Conor Cummins have secured podium finishes at the Ulster Grand Prix.

There were high hopes for a Manx 1-2 going into the final lap of the final Superbike race of the day at Dundrod.

But both Manxies appeared to get in each other's way and that allowed Dean Harrison to regain the lead.

Kneen edged back in front but Harrison took control again late on to pip the Isle of Man riders and take his first ever Ulster GP victory.

It was Kneen’s second podium of the day following a third place in the opening Superstock race of the day.

He told BBC Radio Ulster he was gutted to miss out on the top spot.
