MX Nationals – Cusses Gorse Sunday report

The last day of the final round of the 2018 Michelin MX Nationals series welcomed a packed grid of Pro MX1 and MX2 riders to Cusses Gorse, which included 2017 Pro MX champ Graeme Irwin (Hitachi AXA KTM) in its mix.

While Irwin won both MX1 motos, a determined Jake Nicholls (Buildbase Honda) dug deep and, with his eyes set firmly on winning the championship title, posted fourth and third place finishes which were enough to secure the 2018 title for both rider and team.

Josh Gilbert on winning first Pro title

In the Pro MX2 group, Buildbase Honda’s Josh Gilbert took the first race win and was then second in the afternoon race. Those results were enough to net the 20-year-old the overall, and the championship title.

While the Expert MX2 class had already been won by Northern Ireland’s Jason Meara, the MX1 category went all the way to the wire, with Richard Bird emerging victorious.

Both Clubmen races were decided today, with Harry Fletcher taking the MX2 crown and Aiden Christie cleaning up in the MX1 group.

In the youth ranks; Callum Green took the MXY2 class title, while Joel Rizzi (MXY1), Ryan Mawhinney (BW85) and Ollie Colmer (SW85) had already secured their championship wins.
