The talented pool of young Yamaha 85cc Cup riders took to the track for their second outing for 2016 yesterday, alongside round four of the Motul MX Nationals at Murray Bridge in South Australia.

With the soft red dirt providing new ground for the Yamaha 85cc Cup competitors, it was once again Husqvarna’s Bailey Malkiewicz who claimed victory.

Malkiewicz qualified fastest before finishing with 2-2 moto results for the overall. KTM rider John Bova won moto one and was second overall, while impressive KTM-mounted Tyler Darby was third after winning moto two.

Consistency paid for Malkiewicz in South Australia, now 13 points ahead of Bova in the standings, while Darby sits third overall following two rounds.
