In race 1 of the penultimate round at Donington, Stalker had his best grid position of the season. Starting from 2nd place, he took the race lead before the first bend and held this for 2 laps. He lost ground gradually as the race progressed but was the only Rizla Suzuki rider to finish the race - in 6th.

Another superb start in race 2, saw Stalker taking the lead again. A nail-biting race with Chris moving in and out of the top 4 throughout. Stalker only just missed the podium at the end of the day, finishing in 4th position. He now sits 7th in the championship with 206 points.

On a different note, for all the fans out there, Chris' autobiography will be available from November, (an ideal Christmas gift and a MUST for all you serial stalkers!) - so keep your eyes peeled on this website for more details!
