En la carrera de Supersport, Anstey se encontró con una inesperada victoria después de que William Dunlop, que marchaba líder, tuviese que abandonar en la última vuelta por un problema de motor en su Suzuki GSX-R 600. El piloto neozelandés tuvo mucho suerte, ya que la moto de Dunlop escupió aceite y le manchó la visera del casco cuando iban a más de 200 km/h, pero Anstey pudo controlar la situación y cruzó la línea de meta primero, seguido de Lee Johnston (Honda - ECC / Pirtek) y Guy Martin (Tyco Suzuki).
En la siguiente carrera del sábado, la Superbike 1, las cosas tampoco fueron fáciles para Anstey. Durante las primeras vueltas, era Guy Martin quien lideraba el grupo, hasta que en el último giro, ambos protagonizaron un espectacular duelo por la victoria. Anstey fue el más listo y, tras un interior en Tournagrough, pudo contener los ataques de la Suzuki de Martin para anotarse su segunda victoria del día. Lee Johnston y su Honda CBR 1000RR completaba este podio de Superbike 1.
En Superstock, destacar la soberbia victoria de Dan Kneen (Suzuki - Marks Bloom Racing) por una milésima de segundo sobre el joven Dean Harrison y su Kawasaki ZX-10R, un podio que completó el gran protagonista de este Ulster GP, Dean Harrison. En la categoría Supertwin, el británico Ivan Lintin se apuntaba un nuevo triunfo sobre su Kawasaki ER6 modificada. Las carreras Superbike 2 y Supersport 2 del domingo no pudieron disputarse por culpa del fortísimo viento que azotó el circuito de Dundrod, por lo que el director de carrera, Noel Johnston, decidió dar por terminado este Ulster GP 2014.
Como suele ser habitual en este tipo de carreras, tenemos que lamentar varios accidentes, uno de ellos muy grave. Se trata del francés Pierre Favre, que se fue al suelo durante la cita Ultra Lightweight/Lightweight de la Dundrod 150 que puntúa para el nacional irlandés de Road Racing. La última información facilitada por la organización sobre Favre dice que el galo permanece en estado crítico con lesiones en la médula espinal.
Por otro lado, Danny Weebb, Dean Harrison, Dan Kneen y Keith Amor también han sufrido diversas fracturas a lo largo de la semana, aunque todos podrán abandonar el hospital en las próximas horas.
