Hurricane Mills, TN (8/14/2014)
- Yamaha Racing’s Chad Wienen captured a historic third straight AMA Pro
ATV MX Series Championship last weekend, and his Yamaha and Wienen Motorsports teammate Thomas Brown
took third overall for the season.
The pair have been riding their YFZ450Rs to the top of the podium all season capping 2014 with first and third
place finishes at the finale at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tenn., on Saturday, August 9. Wienen
scored 1-2 on the day for an overall win, while Brown grabbed 2-3 giving him third overall at Loretta’s.
"The 2014 season was one to remember – the entire Wienen Motorsports Yamaha Team worked in sync,”
Wienen said. “We were able to accomplish big results this year by winning eight out of the nine rounds for our
team. Yamaha has provided us with race-winning performance once again with the 2014 YFZ450R, and we are
looking forward to the 2015 season aboard Yamaha again."

Wienen, who has been collecting championships ever since he mounted a YFZ450R in 2012, scored seven
overall wins out of nine rounds this year and finished second in the only two stops he didn’t win. Brown, who

is extremely proud of their accomplishments and their character on and off the race track. These guys know how
to race, and they are great representatives of the sport for Yamaha and the Wienen
