The Motocross des Nations at Foxhill is infamous for its torrid conditions and riders attending the final round of the British Masters Motocross series had a taste of those conditions this past weekend. ARB Tuning Kawasaki's three riders were amongst those, and all things considered, gave the team a good ending to the British Masters.
When ARB Tuning Kawasaki arrived at Hawkstone Park for the penultimate round of the British Masters Motocross championship last weekend, it had all the makings of yet another wet race. Drizzle throughout Saturday morning and rain throughout the afternoon made it look like it could be a repeat of the so ill-fated previous outing of the same series barely a few weeks ago, in which the team watched Sunday's racing get cancelled. On Sunday, mixed weather and blustery winds before lunch turned into sunshine later in the afternoon, turning the outing into something much more pleasant.
Round three of the British Masters championship took place at the weekend, held at the ever popular Landrake circuit near Plymouth, with Lewis Gregory showing great form after recent injury woes. Starting out in striking style, Lewis took the lead in race one half way round the first lap and continued to lead for the rest of the race to take the win. A first turn incident left Lewis with work to do in race two, but another strong ride throughout the 25-minute race saw Lewis capture third place in the race and seal the overall victory.
