Villopoto Returns to Podium in Jacksonville

After a couple rough weekends, Vans Monster Energy Kawasaki Rider Ryan Villopoto lands himself back on top of the podium with a hard earned first place in Jacksonville! Although, Villopoto didn't start the day off as planned. In the first practice of the day, Villopoto went off the track breaking a small bone in his left foot but decided it would be best to sit out the second practice to see how things felt just before the nights event to see if he would be able to race. He was able to dominate both heat races and the main event with his sixth victory of the season! Villopoto is looking forward to this weekends break in the schedule for a little R&R in his new Florida home.

Vans Monster Energy ProCircuit rider Christophe Pourcels weekend didn't go as he planned as he took a hard crash in his heat race but was able to still qualify for the nights main event! Still banged up a little from the heat race, Christophe rode a very impressive race to round the nights podium off with a 3rd place, followed by team mate Dean Wilson capturing a 4 place finish for the evening. Pourcel and Wilson both agreed that this years track was very technical as the dirt that was used was much dryer which pulled out a ton of pebbles making for vary slick riding conditions. Both of these riders are looking forward to this next weekends race to be held in Dallas TX as they are both looking forward to podium finishes!
