The Hawk International Motocross kicks off at Hawkstone Park in Shropshire on the 10th February 2013 and the pre-season opening race has attracted a world-class line-up of riders eager to compete...
The top billing riders heading the field include current MX2 World Champion Jeffrey Herlings and his new KTM team-mate Jordi Tikier, plus Britain’s number one rider Tommy Searle, whose age means he has moved up to the MX1 class and will make his 450 debut for Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki.
Searle will be competing at Hawkstone against Clement Desalle, Marc de Reuver and British MX1 Champion Kevin Strijbos. In MX2, British hopes lie at the feet of Elliot Banks Browne, James Dunn and brothers Ben and Nathan Watson.
Hawkstone is situated 10 miles north of Shrewsbury and will be signposted off the A49 Shrewsbury to Whitchurch and the A53 Shrewsbury to Market Drayton roads, postcode SY4 4NA. Race day is Sunday 10th February and tickets are available on the gates at the day, priced £25.
