Byrne Grabs 1st Podium at Red Bud

17 July 2008

Rockstar Makita Suzuki Factory Racing's Michael Byrne picked up his first podium of the 2008 AMA Motocross season at Red Bud Track & Trail in Buchanan, Michigan, on Sunday afternoon. The Australian rider put in two strong motos, bringing home two fourth-place finishes to take the overall third-place result. Team mate Mike Alessi had a great first moto, getting the holeshot on his Rockstar Makita Suzuki RM-Z450 and finishing in second place. Unfortunately, Alessi crashed hard in the second moto and was unable to finish the race. He suffered two broken scapulas, a broken rib and a bruised lung.
