Conor Cummins took tenth place in yesterday’s Monster Energy Supersport race two for Milwaukee Yamaha.

Cummins again struggled slightly with the set-up on his Milwaukee Yamaha R6, but is looking forward to the final race of TT2013: the blue riband six-lap Senior TT on Friday.

Cummins said: “It was a bit frustrating to be as far down as tenth, but I’m still not where I need to be with my set-up on the little 600, even though it’s a great machine to ride. It gets me more laps, but hopefully my race will be Friday’s Senior TT, where I’ll be looking for a top result to end the week on a high with the Milwaukee Yamaha guys.”

Team Owner Shaun Muir concluded: “Conor is still struggling a little with set-up. The minor malfunction we had with the pit lane limiter cost us some very important time in the end, but we will gather ourselves up and move forward again for Friday’s Senior TT.”
