Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha riders end weekend on high notes

Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha riders end weekend on high notes

Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha riders Garrett Gerloff and Cameron Beaubier scored a victory and couple of podiums in Pittsburgh.

Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha Factory Racing Team had a splendid weekend as Garrett Gerloff scored a stellar victory in race one and Cameron Beaubier taking on the podiums at the Pittsburgh International Race Complex.

Round Eight of the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship got off to a great start this weekend. Gerloff stayed on top of the timesheets during the qualifying sessions. Beaubier, on the other hand, earned Superpole on Saturday. Both the riders maintained their momentum to produce a sterling performance in the main race.

Next up on the map for the Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha Factory Racing team is the penultimate round of the 2019 MotoAmerica Superbike Championship at New Jersey Motorsports Park, September 23-25.

“Two second places at Pitt. I had everything I needed to win race two today, but I made a mistake with a few laps to go. At some point, I went into the little chicane, and I think I just knifed the brakes pretty hard and the rear end, I don’t know if it slipped or what, but I was in just way too deep. I didn’t want to cut the track because I knew I would have had to give up a position. But I made it worse. I jumped a curb, went through the grass, ended up going a second back or whatever I was. I was just so mad. Just put my head down and rode as hard as I possibly could to try to do something. But it was too late,” says Beaubier as quoted from Yamaha Racing.

“Coming up short twice stings when you’re trying to claw back up in the points, but that’s racing. We got two rounds left. I really enjoy the last two tracks, New Jersey and Barber. I’m just gonna keep pushing forward!”

“The weekend started off well. We pulled the bike out of the truck and everything was working perfect right from the start. We did makes some big changes to the bike setup, but in the end both setups worked really well and we knew we had something strong for the races. In the first race, man, it kind of sucked because I blew a two-second lead on the third lap by running off the track. I came back on in third place and I had to fight and give it all I had to race with Toni and Cameron and still take home the win. But luckily the Yamaha R1 was awesome and I was able to get the win at the end of the day.

“Today everything felt good in warmup. I felt like I had a really good bike. We made a few changes that I felt helped. Then during the race, I actually got a really good start. I was leading into the first corner, led the first lap and felt really good. Going into the third corner, the bike just kind of gave out on me. That’s racing sometimes. I’ll be back. I’ll be stronger for the next one. I’m super motivated for the rest of the season and to finish off the year the best that I can.”
