MotoAmerica Press Release MotoAmerica will be well represented in the inaugural Superprestigio of the Americas with MotoAmerica Superstock 1000 Champion Jake Gagne and MotoAmerica Superstock 600 champion Joe Roberts set to join Superbike Championship runner-up Josh Hayes and Roger Hayden, the third ranked MotoAmerica Superbike rider in 2015, in the Las Vegas event. With his participation in the Superprestigio of the Americas, Gagne could make claim to being one of the most versatile professional motorcycle racers in the sport today. In addition to his championship-winning performance with RoadRace Factory/
Yamaha in the Superstock 1000 class, Gagne also raced and qualified for a Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross National at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah in August. Coming on board alongside Gagne and Roberts and added to the elite rider roster for the 2015 Superprestigio of the Americas roster are AMA Pro Hillclimb Champion Phil Libhart, former AMA Superbike winners Larry Pegram and Blake Young, Spanish Supermoto Specialist Dani Ribalta, British flat track racer Oliver Brindley, Spanish flat track specialist Franc Serra and Street Freestyle standout Aaron Colton.
“We couldn’t be happier to have current MotoAmerica Champions Jake Gagne and Joe Roberts involved in the Superprestigio of the Americas,” said SMI President Steve McLaughlin. “It was quite an accomplishment when Jake made the field at an AMA Pro Motocross National this summer and we’ll be excited to see if he can get into the final at the Orleans as well. And, of course, the riders coming over from Europe truly give us an international field, which we feel is quite an accomplishment for a first-year event.” The first-ever Superprestigio of the Americas presented by Yamaha (SOTA’15) will bring together top racers from varying racing disciplines to race head to head against AMA Pro Flat Track racing’s leading riders in a two-day, season-ending event at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas. Running the day before the Superprestigio of the Americas, on Friday, November 20 at the Orleans Arena, will be the AMA Pro Flat Track Championship finale where the 2015 AMA Pro Grand National Champion will be crowned.
Two spots are still open for AMA Pro Grand National riders to qualify and will be decided the night before SOTA’15 during the AMA Pro Flat Track final. The two riders who win the GNC1 and GNC2 class in the AMA Pro Flat Track final Friday night will also gain entry in the Superprestigio of the Americas. For more information:
