RITON Peter Hickman Bwon the 52nd Macau Mo- Hickman wins for the third torcycle Grand Prix race on Sa- turday afternoon. Starting from pole position, time, Aspire-Ho makes it 1-2 Hickman saw his teammate and Macau’s most successful motorcycle racer, Michael Rut- ter, take the lead with a brilliant start. However, Hickman did not let Rutter get away and pur- MARQUES RENATO sued him until the fourth lap when, on the braking into Lis- boa, Hickman took the lead and did not let it go. Controlling the race pace, Hi- ckman saw Rutter reducing the gap between the front-runners in the following laps but he was always in control of the situa- tion. Further back, the battle for third and fourth position was the most interesting one to follow, with Martin Jessopp, Danny Webb and Gary Johnson fighting for the best possible position. In the end, it was Jes- sopp in the Ducati who climbed once more to the lower step of the podium in Macau. The fourth position was oc- cupied by Webb who had an impressive performance throu- ghout the weekend and was always a contender for the top positions. The best result from Webb was last year’s 10th posi- tion.
