Il presentatore ha annunciato quello che abbiamo tutti sentito per mesi, Eli Tomac si unirà al Team Monster Energy Kawasaki, al fianco del pilota Wil Hahn per il 2016. Eli Tomac e il suo meccanico di lunga data, Brian Kranz, sono entrambi di passaggio per il prossimo anno.
In un off-season senza troppi cambiamenti della squadra, questo è il più grande annuncio della stagione e della squadra, Eli Tomac ha guidato per la squadra Geico Honda fin dal suo debutto pro nel 2010.
Eli sta ancora recuperando dal suo infortunio alla spalla rimediato al terzo round del National a Thunder Valley quest’anno, quindi non sapremo quando vedremo Eli sulla sua nuova KX450F fino alla gara di apertura del Supercross nel 2016 ad Anaheim 1.
State sintonizzati per il comunicato stampa UFFICIALE!
Monster Energy Kawasaki Announces 2016 Racing Team
Irvine, Calif. (October 15, 2015) – The Monster Energy® Kawasaki racing team looks to continue its championship winning ways with former champions Eli Tomac and Wil Hahn. Tomac, the 2012 250cc Supercross® West Region Champion and 2013 250cc Motocross Champion, continues to be a top competitor in the premier supercross class including winning supercross and motocross races during his first two years in the premier class. Hahn is beginning his third campaign in the premier class after capturing the 2013 250cc Supercross East Region Championship and is poised to collect podium finishes in 2016. Both will compete on the championship proven KX™450F as they look to continue Kawasaki’s winning legacy.
“The new KX450F provides a great platform to build champions,” said Dan Fahie, Monster Energy Kawasaki Team Manager. “I believe we are poised to have a successful 2016 season with Eli and Wil under our tent. Both riders have proven to be top contenders in the 450 class and they are just as enthusiastic as we are to get back to racing and on top of the box.”
Tomac brings with him an impressive resume that includes a 250cc Supercross West Region Championship, a 250cc Motocross Championship, three AMA premier class Supercross race wins, 11 podium finishes, second overall in the 2015 AMA Monster Energy Supercross season and two overall wins, two overall podiums and five moto wins in the 2015 Pro Motocross season. The Monster Energy Kawasaki racing team has been the most dominant supercross and motocross team in the last decade with eight combined AMA titles.
“Joining Monster Energy Kawasaki has always been a goal and dream of mine,” said Tomac. “I feel like with a bike and chassis as good as the KX, plus a team totally dedicated to the 450 class, we should be able to do big things in the near future. It’s a new team, new bike and a new year of racing. I can’t wait to get back at it.”
