Walsh and Searle take over the lead in England
During the fourth of the Maxxis British Championship, Dylan Walsh (MX2) and Tommy Searle (MX1) took the lead. In the lightest class, Josh Gilbert (1-4) won the day classification ahead of Walsh (3-2) and Ashton Dickison (5-5). In Blaxhall Bas Vaessen was very fast but only scored one point in the first round due to a stone in the gear lever. The second round was won by the Limburger, so he is now fourth in the standings! Shaun Simpson (7-4) saw fellow countryman Searle (3-1) score well, causing the KTM rider to lose the lead. Gert Krestinov (6-3) finished second ahead of Brad Anderson (4-6).
