Yamaha rider Jordan Hill won the opening Pirelli MXD round of the 2015 MX Nationals season today at Horsham, in a weekend marred by a critical incident involving rising star Dylan Wilson during moto two.

Hill won the opening race of the year as the Under 19s class of this season debuted, taking it home from fellow Yamaha rider Wilson and KTM’s Jayden Rykers.

After claiming top qualifying position, the first MXD holeshot for 2015 also went to young gun Mitchell Evans on the GYTR Yamaha, however his glory was short-lived.

After only one lap and while in the lead, Evans was forced to exit the race, pulling into the pits nursing his wrist and recording a DNF.

Teammate Wilson Todd led the race momentarily until he too struck troubles, enabling Hill to take charge and sprint off the victory.

Race two for the MXD class got underway, however the incident of Wilson saw the second moto red-flagged, and the class did not return to the track for any further racing.

Wilson received immediate treatment from the RACESAFE Medical Team at the track and has been transported to Melbourne for further treatment. Further information will be made available as it comes to hand.

With the MXD class unable to complete moto two, round results have now been calculated based on moto one results only.

Williams Event Management will look to add an additional race to the MX Nationals program at one of the remaining nine rounds of the series.
