Josh Hill fills in for Justin Barcia!
Surprising news from the Monster Energy Yamaha Factory Racing team just before the Seattle Supercross. With Justin Barcia still working on his comeback, the team has tapped Josh Hill to replace 'Bam-Bam'.
The Seattle round immediately becomes a 'home race' for Hill, who retired as a professional rider in 2015. However, Hill still rides regularly and only finished third in the 2018 AMA Snowbike Championship. In any case, Josh wanted to drive in Seattle as a private driver. However, he couldn't refuse this offer! For now, it appears Hill will only ride for Monster Energy Yamaha Factory Racing in Seattle.
