Wienen Goes 2-1 for the overall win
at Unadilla MX |
The New York crowd witnessed some of the closest
racing of the 2016 season with a three-way battle
for the lead the entire first moto. Wienen came
out of the first turn in the top five and quickly
made his way into third by the end of the first
lap. Wienen made a pass into second on the second
lap and continued to ride in second until there
were three laps to go. With less than two seconds
between the front three riders, Wienen was passed
and fell back to the third place position but
with one lap to go, Wienen moved back into second
and finished out the remainder of the moto.
With
intensity high in the pit, fans were anxious
to get moto 2 started. Wienen sped off the gate
and grabbed the moto 2 holeshot. Wienen put
his head down and began putting distance between
him and the rest of the field. Riding consistent
laps, Wienen went on to grab the moto 2 win
and the overall on the day.
"Unadilla has not been known to be my style
of track but I have now taken a few overalls
home from here over my pro career. We were running
a fast pace all weekend and I knew how important
the holeshot would be and I just really focused
on that as we went to the line for the second
moto. I'm happy to be leaving another weekend
with no points lost and heading to my favorite
track on the circuit Red Bud here in a few weeks."
Said Wienen.
The series will return in two weeks at Red
Bud MX in Buchannan, MI on July 30.
