Northern Ireland's David Allingham has been crowned British Superstock 1000cc champion.

The Eglinton rider took victory in the first race of the weekend over the Brands Hatch GP circuit in Kent to secure an unassailable 47-point lead over nearest challenger Luke Mossey at the head of the championship standings with one race still to come on Sunday.

Allingham has won 10 races over the course of the season aboard his SMS/Nicholl Oils Racing BMW.

The 31-year-old had finished runner-up behind Ukraine's Ilya Mikhalchik in the 2025 edition of the series.

Allingham went into Saturday's 15-lap race with a 42-point cushion over Milenco by Padgett's Honda rider Luke Mossey.

The new champion finished ahead of Mossey and Billy McConnell in the opening outing of the weekend.

Meanwhile the Northern Ireland-based Scars Racing team have clinched the British Supersport title with their rider Luke Stapleford.

Stapleford won seven races during the 2026 campaign.

The team, jointly managed by Dale McElveen and Leigh Finlay, will move to the feature British Superbike series next year as official representatives of BMW Motorrad Motorsport.

The team will feature a yet to be revealed two-rider line-up.
