Parkalgar Honda confirms special tribute to fallen star Craig Jones during this weekend's Donington Park round of the World Supersport Championship.

Following the tragic loss of star rider Craig Jones at the Brands Hatch round of the 2008 World Supersport championship, Parkalgar Honda will field only Miguel Praia in this weekend's Donington Park event - when a special tribute to Jones will be paid on race day, at what would have been the young Briton's second home event.

"It is not going to be easy this weekend but Miguel and the team will concentrate on doing the best job that they can and achieving the best result possible," said team manager Simon Buckmaster

"The tribute to Craig we feel is fitting for a great, well loved and respected rider. It's also an opportunity for the World Superbike paddock and the race fans to say 'Goodbye' to Craig.

"It is a big loss to the team but we will be putting 100 per cent effort behind Miguel this weekend and I know that our professionalism as a team will move us forward as Craig would have wanted," he added.
