Bel-Ray Race Report – Weekend Preview
April 29, 2011, 9:20am
The most exciting Supercross series in recent history is down to the final 2 rounds with Two Two Motorsports’ Chad Reed right in the middle of the championship hunt. Reed is just 6 points out of the lead and sits in second, heading into this weekend in Salt Lake City.
After a spectacular crash in the closing laps of the last race's main event, Reed remounted and held off a charging Ryan Villopoto to secure 3rd place and gain 2 points on the points leader heading into this weekend. The Dodge Motorsports / Hart and Huntington team of Ivan Tedesco and Chris Blose have both been struggling with injuries this season, but still sit inside the top 15 in the points standings. Blose is in 14th, while Tedesco is in 10th, as the series winds down.
While Supercross is drawing to a close, the Moto GP season is just getting started. Round 3 of the MotoGP season heads to Portugal and the Estoril circuit this weekend. The Bel-Ray backed Tech 3 Moto2 Team returns to action after a short break in the schedule. After a 4th place finish in Spain, Bradley Smith is looking to step up onto the podium this weekend. Teammate Mike DiMeglio's 26th place finish in Spain is far from where the French rider wants to be. He is ready for action this weekend and looking to improve.
