Law third at Revo round for Apico Husky

Round 3 of the Revo British Motocross Championship fuelled by Gulf Race Fuels was at the iconic Cadders Hill Motocross Circuit at Lyng, a calendar favourite and demanding track that was ready to test the best motocross riders in the country.

MX2 practice was hard work, with the timing screens down it was all on Jamie and Jack to ride without help from their mechanic’s boards for most of the session. Jamie managed a quick time coming out with a P3 and Jack not getting the momentum in his laps finished in 23^rd position. In MX1 Stuart wasn’t feeling 100% and wanted to get some points on the board this weekend so didn’t push, qualifying 17^thwhile Martin, also still suffering from fatigue gave a good account for himself finishing 9^th.

Jamie Law 25 MX2
After the tests of practice, Jamie had a good gate pick and fired up the start-straight and around the first corner in 3^rd, just behind teammate Jack Lindsay!! Jamie got his head down by keeping an eye on the leading two riders, putting in a couple of quick laps before finding himself alone in 3^rd place. This early push made for a long ride to the flag, though one he’d take any week to finish 3^rd in MX2. Race 2 was somewhat of a re-run of race 1, though Jamie was feeling the pressure a little more from the following pack. Again, after an early pass, he rode out the race trouble-free to put the 2-Stroke Apico Husqvarna on the box for a second 3^rd place in as many meetings. Jamie now lies in 2^nd place in the Revo British Motocross Championship fuelled by Gulf Race Fuels MX2 Championship.

Stuart Edmonds 162 MX1
Not feeling his best, Stuart was out to give his all. In race 1 Stuart managed a decent start though was riding more cautiously than usual for the first couple of laps. As the race progressed, Stuart began to get into a rhythm. At the mid-point, Stuart was feeling comfortable and started his assault on the field making up a number of places and finally passing his last opponent on the final lap to finish 8^th at the flag. Race 2 didn’t go to plan, out of the start, up Cadders Hill start-straight Stuart made contact with a couple of riders that resulted in a pile-up that caught out half the field behind him. Undeterred, Stuart pushed on passing 12 riders to break back into the top 20 by the halfway point of the race. He could see the next 6 riders in front of him, though could hear a noise getting louder he thought was coming from the engine. Not wanting to endanger himself with the bike locking up while pushing hard, Stuart decided to DNF race 2. Stuart finished 14^th overall in MX1 on a single result.

Martin Barr 50 MX1
Martin, still suffering from fatigue went into practice and put a solid 9^th place fastest time on the board in lap 3. The first race saw Martin make a good start, pulling away with the front runners in 7^th place. After a few laps, he broke his rear brake pedal tip-off, which made things harder, though he still managed to keep 7^th until lap 9 when he encountered another technical issue which meant he had to DNF. There was a lot to take away from the race, the speed was there, and Martin was comfortable running the pace. In race 2 Martin had a decent start and ran in 9^th for most of the race. He was unable to push due to losing energy, though still managed to maintain his position and cross the line 9^th for 15^th overall from a single race result.

Dylan Brown Team Manager
Another fantastic weekend at the Revo British Motocross Championship, with Jamie now in 2^nd place in the MX2 Championship after putting the 2-stroke back on the box for the second time in 3 meetings. I’m really pleased with his progression in the championship this season. I’d like to think after Jack’s performances this weekend that Jamie’s success is having a positive influence on the young rider and team. Jack had a great ride showing determination, almost hole-shotting race 1 and keeping calm and composed, putting in the consistent laps. This shows his maturity and development as one of the U.K.’s top young prospects in the MX2 Pro Class.

MX1 was tough, both Stuart and Martin showing what we know they are capable of with speed and consistency. It was a shame for both riders that they had some technical issues. Stuart was making up places and coming strong into the second half of race 1 and Martin running well inside the top 10 of race 2 before they both had technical issues that ended their respective races. All the riders have come away healthy and although Stuart and Martin have suffered lately by not being 100% well, they are still getting good results and showing why they are amongst the best riders in the British Isles. We look forward to the next round of the MXGB in a couple of weeks at Canada Heights. Thank you as always to our sponsors and all members of the team for making this possible.

Jack Lindsay 433 MX2

After a tough qualifying, Jack managed to get an inside gate and went for it, straight up the inside almost nicking the holeshot from Conrad Mewse and just in front of teammate Jamie Law. Jack went on to have his best pro start of the season, riding consistently in 7^th for most of the race before having an incident that caused him to leave the track and lose several places right at the end to finish 12^th. In race 2 Jack went for the inside again in the top 5, though lost several positions and was battling most of the race with another rider. He managed to cross the line 14^th for 16^th overall in MX2.
