Dean Wilson crossed the finish line first but then got docked so Conrad Mewse took to the top step of the podium in Belfast at the fourth round of the series.

However, video footage has been brought forward which shows the yellow flag going out just before Wilson jumped – he was already committed and couldn’t slow down. He has now been declared the winner so it means he did the double in Belfast.

The Arenacross UK Tour posted the following update:

WOW BELFAST – you guys are something else! What an INCREDIBLE second night… thankyou thankyou thankyou!
