Pirelli supported riders took podiums in all three classes at Shepparton MX Nationals, including Moto win in the MX1 class to Todd Waters.
The latest round of the Motul MX National’s saw Pirelli riders feature on the podium in three key classes of the series. The tricky conditions again showed the versatility and race winning performance of the Scorpion MX32.
MX 1
Todd Waters (Wilsons Cool Air Motul Suzuki) lead the way for the Pirelli riders at this round, taking the Moto 1 win after placing 2nd in the GoPro Superpole. Waters chose the Scorpion MX32 front 80/100-21 in combination with the 110/90-19 rear Scorpion MX 32 to achieve this result. A 3rd place in the second race meant he ended up 2nd overall for the round after count-back. Kade Mosig (National Pump Monster Energy Kawasaki) finished a strong 4th for the round, taking 4th in both MX1 races.
MX 2
In the MX2 class Husqvarna rider Nathan Crawford achieved the fastest qualifying time and a pair of 3rd place Moto finishes for 3rd overall for the day, keeping his championship aspirations alive with 2 rounds remaining. Crawford again chose the Scorpion MX32 front and rear. Jayden Rykers brought his Davey Motorsport KTM home in 4th place, with Pirelli riders filling 6 of the top 10 places in the MX2 class.
MXD
The Pirelli Supported MXD class saw young Tasmanian rider Wade Kirkland again feature prominently in the results , with a 2nd overall for this round on Raceline Pirelli KTM , with 2-3 results for the two moto’s. Half the top 10 in this class also chose to race with Pirelli.
Don Nicholas – Product Manager Moto Link International –“ With 2 rounds of the Motul MX Nationals to go we have Pirelli riders well placed MX1, MX2 and MXD. Toowoomba and Coolum are quite different tracks, with the new Scorpion MX32 Pro sure to feature at Toowoomba and the Scorpion MX Soft 410 a favourite race winning tyre at Coolum. We look forward to seeing how all Pirelli riders perform at these final two rounds, and congratulate Todd and the Wilson Cool Air Motul Suzuki team on their MX1 Moto win at Shepparton”.
