The Michelin MX Nationals series for this season will be concluded at the next round, the fifth one, at Hawkstone Park on the 2nd & 3rd of September.

This means that GTCI Revo Kawasaki’s Billy Askew is already the champion in the Fly Futures MXY2 class, after an unbeaten 14-moto run he lies 102 points ahead of his closest challenger, meaning that he can’t be caught even if he misses Hawkstone entirely! The Pro Championships are close, with Conrad Mewse enjoying a 10-point lead in the Leatt Pro MX1 class over his teammate at Crendon Fastrack Honda, Josh Gilbert.

In the Apico Pro MX2 category, five riders are covered by just 14 points! So it’s a real showdown between Charlie Cole of Blades Bikes Kawasaki, Jamie Wainwright of WPH/SBE/Pure/Redline KTM, Carlton Husband of Phoenix Tools/Even Strokes Kawasaki, Joe Brooks of GRT Impact KTM, and Calum Mitchell of Lexa MX.

Outside of the racing, however, the press release from the Michelin MX Nationals crew does raise some question marks over the future of the series at the end of its tenth year. The Revo ACU British Championships also lost a round with the cancellation of Canada Heights this year, making for a very scribbled British calendar!

We will watch this space for further developments, but here is the full story from the team themselves:

Round Five will be the last round of the 2023 Michelin MX Nationals Championship.

The MX Nationals team regrets announcing that the final round of the 2023 championship will be round five at Hawkstone Park on September 2nd and 3rd. Originally planned as a six-round championship, unforeseen challenges arising from the persistent British weather, the closure of secure tracks mid-season, and a heavily packed MX calendar during September and October have necessitated calling the championship to an end at round five.

As a result, the upcoming round five at Hawkstone Park on September 2nd & 3rd will now serve as the final round of the 2023 Championship.

“While we understand the disappointment this news may bring, we firmly believe that it is the right decision for MX Nationals, Pro teams and riders in mind. With the dwindling registered riders’ entries and the increased number of wildcards each round, it is becoming increasingly difficult to sustain the series, and it questions what the future of the championship and British Motocross looks like. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the participants, teams, sponsors, and fans who have shown unwavering support and enthusiasm for the Michelin MX Nationals series over ten years.”

Neil Irwin – MX Nationals Director, continued, “Your dedication and encouragement have been instrumental in driving the championship’s success over the years. However, now is the time for change, and we look forward to doing something new in the future. This is the end of MX Nationals Championship as you know it.”

Paul Irwin – Race Director, added, “We invite you all to join us at Hawkstone as we celebrate the victories and the end of the season in style. The final round promises to be a thrilling event where the best of the best will showcase their skills and compete for the coveted championship titles. Let us come together to honour the riders’ accomplishments and witness the crowning of the 2023 MX Nationals champions.”

All the news from the Cusses swansong

Published

Despite the changeable weather that tested the Michelin MX Nationals powered by Milwaukee team to the maximum last weekend, round four of the prestigious series went to the soon-to-be-closed Cusses Gorse, just up the road from Stonehenge.

It started to rain in the early hours of Saturday morning and didn’t stop. One block of racing was run instead of the usual two on Saturday, hoping that Sunday’s drier forecast was correct. As the riders, officials, family, and friends woke up on day two of the event, the sun was out, and the overnight wind had dried the track to put it into ideal racing condition.

The Crendon Fastrack Honda riders topped the Leatt Pro MX1 podium once again as Conrad Mewse took both race wins from teammate Josh Gilbert with Harri Kullas once again having to settle for third on his Cab Screens Crescent Yamaha.

Dylan Walsh, now riding a KTM sponsored by M. Smith Electrical, won both Apico Pro MX2 races from Jorgen-Matthias Talviku (SC Sporthomes Husqvarna), and Joe Brooks had his first national podium appearance on his GRT Impact KTM in third.

Gilbert got the holeshot at the start of the first combined Pro MX1 and MX2 from Mewse and Kullas, with Tommy Searle (GTCI Revo Kawasaki) fourth and Brooks, the first of the MX2s in fifth place.

For the first half of the race, Mewse stayed with his teammate Gilbert eyeing up any chance of slipping past for the lead. And on lap six, after Gilbert made a small mistake whilst struggling with a front brake issue, he was through and into the lead and, eventually, the race win. Mewse was suffering a little after a big crash in mid-week practice but he gritted his teeth to deliver the result.

Kullas slipped by Gilbert for second three laps later, relegating the Cornishman to third place at the finish flag. Searle spent the entire race in a distant fourth place, while Tristan Purdon (Gabriel SS24 KTM) came from eleventh at the start to fifth place.

Joel Rizzi (Honda) became the leading MX2 rider after passing Brooks on lap two. Still, a fast-moving Walsh passed both of them on his way to fifth on the track only to be relegated two places by MX1 riders as first Purdon powered past him, then Tom Grimshaw (Chambers Gas Gas) slipped by on his way to a sixth-place finish. With Rizzi on his tail, Walsh eventually crossed the finish line in seventh on the track, but he was the first MX2 rider.

Talviku did things the hard way as he gated nineteenth and had to fight past many of the 450s to finish in eleventh place in the race but third MX2.

Once again, it was the same three riders in the lead at the start of race two. Gilbert repeated the holeshot from Mewse and Kullas, with Grimshaw and Purdon heading up the rest. Walsh was proving that he was adapting well to the KTM, in eighth place and was the first MX2 rider.

As the riders disappeared around the second lap, Rizzi limped back into the work area with the front brake caliper hanging off his machine, ending his day and any chance of the overall win.

Searle got caught up in one of the deep ruts and went down. He got going again in twelfth place and finished his race in fifth.

On lap four, Mewse powered past an unsuspecting Gilbert around the outside of the second corner, into the lead, and powered on to his second race win. Gilbert hung onto second for second overall, with Kullas spending all race in third place for third overall. After passing Grimshaw on lap one, Purdon was fourth, with Searle knocking Grimshaw down another place with three laps to go.

Mewse now leads the Leatt MX1 Pro series by ten poitns over Gilbert, with Kullas now 17 points further back. And they head next to Hawkstone Park, one of Conrad’s favourite circuits where he went 1-1 in the Revo series in June!

As for the MX2s, Walsh had an uneventful race and crossed the finish line seventh in the race, but first MX2 rider. If Talviku had a challenging first race, his second was even more difficult. He crashed on the opening lap and came around past timing in twenty-sixth place but crashed again and dropped down to twenty-eighth. He went almost unobserved in the twelve remaining laps to finish eighth on the track but second MX2 for second overall.

In contrast, Brooks had an easier second race as he had a great start and rounded the first turn in eighth place. After being passed by two 450s, he maintained ninth place with only Talviku passing him with a couple of laps to go for tenth in the race, but third MX2 for third overall.

The main championship contenders for the MX2 class had torrid weekends all around. Charlie Cole (Blades Bikes Kawasaki) made the best of it, despite a dislodged silencer making him the loudest man on track in race one, with 9-6 finishes giving him an eight-point lead from previous leader Jamie Wainwright (WPH/SBE/Pure/Redline KTM). Neither Wainwright or Phoenix Tools/Even Strokes Kawasaki runner Carlton Husband scored higher than 12th all day, and remain a point apart in the standings. Joe Brokks’ amazing weekend saw him suddenly into the picture, just 11 off the lead and three ahead of Calum Mitchell on the Lexa Husqvarna. It leaves the top five covered by 14 points going to Hawkstone Park.

With a third place and two wins, James Dodd (FUS Marsh MX Husqvarna) won the RFX Expert MX1 event from race one winner Aaron Patstone (Brenron Gas Gas) with Richard Bird (Allmoto Megabikes Yamaha) third.

With three race wins from three starts, Ashley Greedy (Darjen Contractors Gas Gas) won the RFX Experts MX2s from teammate Mathew Bayliss who chased Greedy over the finish line two out of three times. Ben Mustoe (ASA United Gas Gas) was third, just four points behind Bayliss.

Josh Greedy (Darjen Contractors Kawasaki), with a second place and two race wins, won the Motoverde Amateur MX1s from race one winner Sean Wainwright (Fasteddy Racing Honda) with Luke Mellows (LM Kitchens Honda) third.

Raife Broadley (723 Race Bikes Fantic) was unbeaten in the Motoverde Amateur MX2s by winning all his races. Series leader Ben Clark (Rock Oil Husqvarna) took third on each occasion for the runner-up overall with Dan Brough (Rutzz.co.uk Yamaha) second in race one and Irish visitor Niall Cregan racing Broadley hard but losing out in both motos on Sunday. Jake Curtis-Stevens (Kawasaki) was third overall, with Brough just missing out on a podium position by two points.

It was tight at the top of the Worx Clubman MX1s as six riders finished within eight points of each other. Adam Paxton (Honda) took the overall win by four points as both Danny Webster (Husqvarna) and Billy Saunders (WMS Commercials Honda) finished on the same points in second and third. Tallon Aspden (LA Groundworks KTM) was fourth, just a single point off the podium but keeping his series red plate, with Drew Lane (Lanes Construction Gas Gas) finishing just one point behind him. Luke Oldfield (KTM) was two points further back.

It was a similar story in the Spiral GFX Clubman MX2s, with Aaron Framingham (Fabrican KTM) taking the win by just four points from Matt Tolley (426 Motorsport KTM) and Max Flint (Planet Moto KTM), who were both on the same points.

Billy Askew (GTCI Revo Kawasaki) continued his winning ways by winning all three Fly Racing MXY2 races and has remained unbeaten in this championship so far this year. Bayliss Utting (Trell Contractors Honda) was second, with Harrison Greenough (KTM) third on his 250F debut as Finley Evans (GRT Impact KTM) missed out on a podium position by a single point.

Reece Jones (SJP Moto KTM) won all three of the Fly Racing MXY125 races from Luke Grundy (KTM) and Wesley McGavin (KTM).

A rear wheel issue for Josh Vail (SJP Moto Husqvarna) robbed him of the overall in the Syntol Lubricants Big Wheel 85 class as with a third, a second and a win, Jamie Keith (MBR X&P KTM) snatched the victory away. Vail won the other two races, but rear wheel problems in race one on Sunday cost him dearly. Charlie Richmond (K&A Construction KTM) was third.

Of the small number of Syntol Lubricants Small Wheel 85s taking part, Joel Winstanley-Dawson (Techsource KTM) took the overall win with a couple of wins and a second place from race three winner Lucas Lee (Husqvarna) and Caiden Brand (Husqvarna).

The next round will be at the legendary Hawkstone Park in Shropshire on the 2nd and 3rd of September.

Brits battle hard amongst the Youth MX elite

Published

on

By

The Team GB FIM Junior MX World Championship crew rode their hearts out for their country last weekend in Romania. They pitted their strengths against the best youth riders in the world to finish 10th out of 36 countries.

Words & Featured Image: Redcat Marketing Ltd

The top three countries were Italy, the Netherlands and France. Only 13 countries had a finish in each of the 125cc, 85cc and 65cc classes and, if a machine fault hadn’t halted the progress of young Casey Lister in the 65cc class, Team GB would have been a cert for fifth overall.

With such a huge turnout out for the highly-revered World Juniors, the competition was always going to be tough and closely fought.

Ollie Colmer, recovering after crashing out of the lead at the Revo British Champs at School House the previous week, was the highest-placed Brit in the 125cc group, finishing 16th overall. Robbie Daly was ninth overall in the 85s, while Casey Lister, currently 2nd in the Revo British series, was 18th in the 65cc class.

This was the first outing for the new Team GB Juniors under the guidance of Dave Willet, with help and support from ex-racers-turned-trainers Glen Phillips, Ashley Wilde and Lee Dunham.

Reflecting on the weekend, his support network and young warriors, team manager Willet said; “I’d like to thank all riders and their parents, our sponsors, and every member of the team for their hard work and dedication. This weekend was an incredible and inspiring experience for us all.

“It was a challenging yet rewarding experience. The riders worked tirelessly to stay focused, and the efforts put in by every single person involved on, and off, the track was inspiring.

“The dedication and commitment that these riders have each demonstrated has been remarkable. They were always determined to put their best foot (wheel) forward and really put their all into this event.

“I’m sure that the riders will take what they’ve learned this weekend and apply it to future events. It’s been an unforgettable experience that we’ll all cherish for a long time.

“We’d like to wish Jake Walker a speedy recovery. He was fired up and ready to go out to Romania but got injured the weekend before at the British Championship at Schoolhouse. It’s such a shame because the track at Bucharest would have suited his style and, obviously, all his stuff was already in the truck.”

Team GB was supported by Armor Vision, ACS Scaffolding Ltd, MGP Steel Erection Ltd, Paul Grimshaw Vehicle Movements, ZERO9 Motocross Graphics, and MotoHead Magazine.

Next up for Willet and crew is the Coupe de l’Avenir in Belgium over the weekend of the 30th September and 1st of October. We wish them every success!
