Round 5 of the 2015 Thor British Youth Nationals will take place this weekend at Fat Cat Moto Parc near Doncaster.
The most exciting youth motocross talent in the UK are set to battle it out to
become British champions in what is without doubt one the most competitive
youth championships in Europe.
Looking at the riders we have on show chasing the titles, it’s nearly impossible to say who might come out on top.
The top 3 in the SW85 class is pretty close but who is favourite to become the
British champion by the end of the weekend? Current leader Eddie Jay Wade has a
7 point advantage over Kacey Hird and 78 points over Lewis Hall. Expect some
serious race faces on Saturday morning.
Luke Smith leads the Open class by 15 points from Jordan Eccles in second and 60
points from Robbie Dowson...one of the three should become champion but don’t
count out George Gregg Pettitt who sits in fourth position. Intense and close racing ahead for sure.
The BW85 class has been amazing all year but who has what it takes to walk away as the 2015 Thor British Youth Champion? Any one of 6 riders can still do it, but
which one? Good luck to Harry Kimber, Tom Grimshaw, Ben Clark, Callum Gasson,
Jed Etchells, Daniel Bewley and every other rider chasing end of season positions.
Alexander Brown and Oli Benton have been banging bars all year in the British 125 class, add Callum Green and Dee Jay Walker into the mix as possible contenders and we are set for a hearting pounding final 6 races of the championship.
In the mini warriors of the 65cc Junior class, like all our classes have put on an
amazing show over the first 4 rounds, we are down to the final 6 Thor British
Youth National races and we still can’t predict who will win the British crown.
Alfie Jones, Charlie Heyman and Raife Broadley are the 3 favourites but it
ain’t over until the fat cat lady sings.
Good luck everyone, enjoy your weekend and let the best rider win.
