\nDue to a lack of time, and an already delayed schedule due to a red-flagged Superstock 600 event, race control made the decision to cancel the race. The series organisers applied the scores as they stood after Silverstone, subsequently declaring Cooper the 2011 title.<\/em><\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/em><\/span>
\nCooper’s championship victory is his first – and the second consecutive Metzeler National Superstock 1000 title for BMW Motorrad. BMW S 1000 RR rider Luke Quigley finished third in the highly competitive championship.<\/em><\/span>

\nRichard Cooper said: “Well it’s very frustrating for me and the team not to be able to race today, I had hoped to give them another great finish and end the year on a high. In fact we almost did the opposite! I had a crash very early on, before the race was red flagged. But I’m unhurt and I’m still the 2011 Superstock 1000 Champion! I can’t thank the team, the supporters, BMW Motorrad and my family and friends enough for helping me take my first title. Thank you all.”<\/em><\/span>

\nStuart Hickman, team principal, said: “Well it’s been a tough weekend and an equally tough year. But we’ve taken the Superstock 1000 title, taken third place in the BSB-EVO series and a very good number of race wins, podium finishes and lap records along the way. Our team have worked hard and I’m very proud of them. And I’m very excited about what 2012 will have in store for us.”<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
