LANES KAWASAKI SPONSORED BY EUROVANS
It was a big weekend for the Lanes Kawasaki team with Alex and James both in action. The Lanes Kawasaki, who is sponsored by Eurovans, made the long journey to the Desert Martin Track in Northern Ireland for the 5th Round of the Maxxis British Championship and the second round of the youth MXYZ Championship.
Alex
In the MX1 Practice, Alex managed to qualify 7th which put him into the super pole where he eventually ended in 8th position, giving him a good opportunity on the start gate. During the MX1 Race, Alex came across the line in a very respectable 4th place and in the MX2 race he was placed 5th. In the final race, Alex finished 6th giving him 4th place overall on the day.
James
In the MXY2, James started the session on his race bike but the suspension set up wasn't to his liking so in the last 5 minutes of the qualifying session, James changed to his number 2 bike where he got one last lap in and qualified 3rd which also put him in a good position on the gate.
In the MXY2 Race 1, James finished in first place. In the MXY2 Race 2, however, disaster struck. James got cross rutted up the face of a jump which sent him out of the track; he landed in a deep water filled ditch which made it impossible for him to get out of and was unable to carry on the race.
