Milwaukee Yamaha’s Josh Brookes has admitted his Snetterton second-race win-or-bust tactics were probably not the best strategy and says he will be using his head more at this weekend’s Knockhill MCE British Superbike round. The Bringelly rider wasn’t injured the highside at Montreal, which handed Byrne another race win and a 45-point championship lead, but he says that he will still take any opportunity to get in front of the Kent rider. ”I am fine after the Snetterton crash so it is business as usual. I think it so down to me and then how Shakey rides. I don't have expectations because if you look at the form from last year, everything has moved on so much,” said the Aussie. “I was expecting us to be neck-and-neck though, and that's how we have been. I am going to use my head a little bit more. At Snetterton I could have waited until the end of the race to try and make the move and it might have worked. “But then I suppose if you look at Oulton Park I made it straight away and then won the race so it all depends on the situation. I have watched the last race back and think perhaps I should have waited, but if the chance is there and I see it this weekend, I will go for it. - See more at: http://www.bikesportnews.com/news-detail.cfm?newstitle=Knockhill-BSB:-%E2%80%98I-need-to-use-my-head-more%E2%80%99---Brookes&newsid=12241#sthash.clICySqD.dpuf
