Jay Wilson Wins Again In All-Japanese Motocross Championship

 

Jay Wilson took three race wins from three starts and continuing his impressive form

Jay Wilson has racked up his sixth race win of the 2023 season and dominating round two of the All-Japanese Motocross Championship at the Tokyo Off Road Village circuit.

After dominating round one and his first event in the IA1 (450cc) class, Wilson kept the momentum going at round two taking another three race wins from three starts and continuing his impressive form.

The only blemish in a near perfect weekend from Wilson was when he shot off the track on the opening lap of race two after misreading the grip levels due to some rain and watering. He re-entered the track back in fifth place and worked his way to the front before the halfway stage.

Wilson has extended his lead in the championship after two rounds but is determined to keep the gas on as the rounds unfold in the future.

“Another great weekend for myself and the team with a Yamaha 1-2 in the IA2 class. My starts were good today and this track reminds me a lot of Moree back at home as the soil is similar and there are plenty of jumps here as well, so I felt right at home,” Wilson said.

“It was awesome to get another win and keep the results coming. The new YZ450F is so good to ride and is so adaptable to so many tracks. We barely changed a thing since round one and it worked well all weekend,” Wilson concluded.

Round three of the championship moves to Miyagi on June 4.
