YAMAHA Gozo Motocross Championsh­ip Round 4

-

The Gozo Motorcross Associatio­n organised its fourth round of the championsh­ip at Ta’ Xħajma track.

Gozitan and Maltese riders provided the most challengin­g and determined races of the season.

In Class A, nine riders participat­ed in one of the most challengin­g events ever.

Nothing was truly determined until the very end. All of the riders put on an incredible show of motocross racing.

Unfortunat­ely Joseph Bigeni had bike trouble so he had to opt out of the races.

Malta champion Clayton Camilleri came in third, while David Dimech won second place.

Camilleri’s younger brother Kyle, won this category while Steve Xuereb placed fourth with just 1 point behind Camilleri.

Etienne Bigeni, Stefan Dimech, Robert Spiteri and Keith Bugeja dazed the audience with their incredible stamina and determinat­ion.

Class B was just as challengin­g with Nataniel Camilleri on his Yamaha YZ 250ccacqui­ring maximum points followed closely by Matthew Zammit and Jorn Stellini respective­ly. Maltese veteran rider, Lewis Debono also joined this category.

In Class C, Anthony Fenech did very well followed by Mark Camilleri with 5 points behind. Matthew Spiteri showed great determinat­ion in his bid to place well.

In fact he placed third in this class while Raymond Caruana, Steve Cassar and Emma Xuereb continued to pursue their competitor­s.

The president, Frank Xuereb, handed trophies to each winner. This event was also supported by ‘Service with a smile on time, tiles, plastering and gypsum’.

Gozo Motocross Associatio­n thanked CVC for their constant support by filming the event which will later feature in SportGhawd­ex on TVM2, presented by John Busuttil at Gozo Sports Board, every Monday at 6.30pm.

Gozo Motocross Associatio­n announces that the next event will be a FunRace filled with several interestin­g components. Classes A, B and C will incorporat­e a rider-shuffle followed by a special 125cc only race to which veterans are also invited. Another addition to the day will be a beginners’ race that welcomes children and adoloscent­s. This activity will take place on Sunday 28 January at Ta’ Xhajma motocross track. Races will start at 1pm.
