FROM THE TRACK: Knockhill brings a double podium finish!
Posted by MSG ADMIN
Back on the podium with two Third Place finishes for defending champion Chrissy Rouse! The 2020 champion arrived at Knockhill with a determination to land the points - and land them he did! After qualifying for 8th position for the opening race, Chrissy pushed the GR Motosport Kawasaki hard from the start to jump straight into Third position on the word go. The opening laps were a manic fight for position with several changes each lap before Chrissy reclaimed his third position until Lap 12, where Lews Rollo pushed by him to knock Chrissy back to 4th Position. Not to...

FROM THE TRACK: Two Fourths at Oulton Park!
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
Better every race! The remainder of the 2019 season is looking up for #69 Chrissy Rouse after pulling off another brilliant performance in BOTH race sessions at Oulton Park last weekend! In BOTH race sessions Chrissy was less than a second away from the podium - definitely showing off that he's a strong competition for the podium in the SuperStock 1000! The weekend started off slightly down - with only one practice session available as heavy rain lashed down and stopped the 2nd free practice period from running, but Chrissy was okay with this and qualified for a 4th position...

FROM THE TRACK: Cadwell battle brings a fourth place home!
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
What a performance! Before we get started - Chrissy absolutely pulled it out of the bag and was only a short 0.399 seconds behind a third place finish! Well done #69! Heavy rain on the Friday prior to the weekend lead to only one free practice session being held, which Morello Racing Kawasaki opted to sit out of with the risky conditions, so Chrissy's first run of the track was the extended qualifier session, where he qualified on a brilliant fifth place to start the race! The race started with a brilliant getaway for Chrissy, where he held on to...

FROM THE TRACK: Thruxton push for points...
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
A sole visit to Thruxton for the season... Chrissy has retained his 7th position in the championship after a ninth place finish at Thruxton on its sole visit of the season. After qualifying in eight position for Sunday's race on his Morello Racing Kawasaki ZX-10RR, Chrissy started out with a slower start than he ideally wanted, but managed to hold his starting position in the opening laps to give him a great opportunity to move up the pack as the race progressed. By lap 9, Chrissy had pushed his way forward by three places and was sitting comfortably in 6th...

FROM THE TRACK: A solid Snetterton for Mr Rouse!
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
First and foremost - Congratulations Mr Rouse! As many readers will know, Chrissy Rouse has been conducting his race career alongside studying to become a qualified teacher of Mathematics, which he graduated from only days before kitting up, prepping his bike, and putting down a solid performance at Snetterton! So congratulations Mr Rouse from everyone here at MSG! In good form though, Chrissy was already looking forward to Snetteron... before heading down to the track, he had a few things to say! “I really like Snetterton, I’ve had some great results there over the years and I think the track...

FROM THE TRACK: A successful return trip to Donington!
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
A solid fifth place at the return to Donington Park! So soon after bagging a fantastic third and fourth place at Knockhill, Chrissy Rouse and Morello Racing Kawasaki were back at it, seeing the World Superbike Championship programme's sole UK visit of the year! With the event allowing much less practice time than normally given, with only one session for practice then immediately on to qualifying on the next track visit, Chrissy qualified in 10th place for the race on Sunday. Immediately after the race kicked off, Chrissy made a brilliant start by pushing his way up the track by...

Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
A podium finish in race 1 and pushed out of race 2...

Qualifying for a fifth place grid start, Chrissy launched off to a flying start and quickly made his position up to third!

FROM THE TRACK: Technical Faults at the Season Opener!
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
The 2019 season is here! Unfortunately the excitement was soon dampened momentarily after Morello Racing Kawasaki's Superstock 1000 rider Chrissy Rouse suffered a spat of bad luck immediately at the season opener. Unfortunately, following a technical problem during the qualifying stage, the Morello Racing Kawasaki team were forced to work flat out to fit a whole new engine to Chrissy's ZX-10RR - which they managed just in time for Saturday's double race where Chrissy managed to pull off an impressive thth place in the first leg of the race, which given the lack of testing time after changing out the...

FROM THE TRACK: Chrissy Rouse Tells Us About His Cadwell Crash
Posted by JAY PALESCHI COLLABORATOR
Introducing our new 'FROM THE TRACK' blog series, with news, insights and more from the world of bike racing. For this first blog, we caught up with MSG Bike Gear sponsored rider Chrissy Rouse and asked him about his crash at Cadwell. What went through your mind after you had come off? So, it was a bit of a strange one at Cadwell, as I was actually unconscious in the crash, so it took a little bit of time to 'come around' and realise what had happened. As I was under the air fence, my first memory was the medics...
