WSB Championship leader Haslam set for Oulton Park - Malcolm - 30-04-2010
World Superbike Championship leader Leon Haslam is back at Oulton Park this weekend, as the Alstare Suzuki rider returns to the BSB paddock after extending his championship advantage less than a week ago at Assen.
Haslam will be making a special guest appearance this weekend and the former BSB ace will be meeting race fans and soaking up the atmosphere at the third round of the championship.
'The Pocket Rocket' will be getting his hands dirty too as he will be part of the pit crew for former MotoGP rider Jeremy McWilliams as he makes his debut in the Henderson Harley-Davidson XR1200 Trophy. It will be a real team effort from the Haslam contingent, as his fiancée Oli will also be supporting McWilliams and the team by being the team's grid girl this weekend!
Don't forget you can relive all the action on British Eurosport 2, ITV1 and ITV4.

Hodgson set for Oulton Park lap of honour
Former World and British Superbike champion Neil Hodgson makes his return to the BSB paddock this Bank Holiday weekend (1/2/3 May) for the first time since announcing his retirement.
Hodgson has had some of his most memorable moments in his BSB career at the Cheshire circuit including winning the race after dramatically starting from the back of the grid in his 2000 title-winning season.
"That race was the most memorable of that season; I had a problem with the bike stalling on the grid for the warm up lap and I had to start from dead last. I remember waiting for the start and it was a tough one but I won the race from the back of the grid. That was really magical that one; it all fell into place and I rode my heart out. I would probably say that was one of my best races of my career."
Don't miss Hodgson's lap of honour at Oulton Park on Bank Holiday Monday.
