With just two weeks to go to the next round and three of the eight events completed, we thought this would be a good time to have a look at the points scorers in our domestic championship and put some facts together! Starting with the MXY2 class, who have only had one round so far this year (Mallory Park in March), 24 riders have scored points, but at the sharp end only Bradley Pocock (MGP -Dixon- Cosworth Yamaha and Connor Walkley (Team Green Kawasaki) have been able to put two consistent rides together, with just seven points between them. However, having already raced nine motos, 33 riders have scored points in MX2, with our two top GP riders, Osborne and Nicholls at the top of the standings, we have to go down to 11th place to find Kawasaki's new signing, Bryan MacKenzie, Luke Hawkins (PAR Honda) and a returning from injury Graeme Irwin (HMPlant Red Bull KTM UK) (pictured) all sharing 79 points. More GP stars, Roczen and Tonus come next and their tally may well be raised later in the year if they make a return visit to the UK, whilst down in 27th position, Will Worden ( Wheeldon Suzuki), Sunny Thompson (Samsung Yamaha and Anthony Reville (TRM CAS Honda) have generally scored points in different motos and will continue their battle at Cadders Hill. We find even more scorers in MX1 - 37 in fact, with Russian CAS Honda rider Evgeny Bobreshev beginning to edge away from Buildbase CCM's Stephen Sword. Mickael Pichon's single visit to Mallory Park stands out in 13th position and he may well be back for the Foxhill round in July. Again, further down the field in 29th position we find a three way tie between Joanas Algotsson, Max Nyberg and Jamie Skuse, whilst Dorren Coutts and James Lassau have scored their single points in different motos.

The MX1 Start list features many GP riders and we can easily pick out fifteen potential podium candidates. Reigning Champion, Brad Anderson will bring an army of his Jordie fans to his local event, whilst world number six, Josh Coppins, previous GP winner, Gert Krestinov and ex 250cc World Champion, Mickael Pichon will sample the circuit for the first time. Add into the mix names like Ray Rowson, James Noble, Carl Nunn, Tom Church, Stephen Sword, Ben LaMay, Alex Snow, Gordon Crockard, current red plate holder, Evgeny Bobreshev, Gareth Swanepoel and Jason Dougan, picking a winner is not easy. The MX2 line up features many GP regulars including Zach Osborne, (pictured) Jake Nicholls, Mel Pocock and Matiss Karro. In his first season on the GP trail, Edward Allingham is now a recognised point scorer, whilst Bryan MacKenzie, Luke Hawkins, Kristian Whatley, Neville Bradshaw and Elliot Banks - Browne will make their life difficult. The airways around the Scottish Borders and the North of England will feature event details on Radio Forthone during the lead up to the big event, which will also feature the FMX UK Freestyle Team doing displays in the adjoining car parking field. The action starts at 9am with Timed Qualifying followed immediately by the Superpole, with the first of six championship races at 12.30pm. The circuit, just outside of Duns, midway between Newcastle and Edinburgh, in the Scottish Borders, is easily reached from the A1 and A7 trunk roads. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read article
