Tom Sagar came back to the GBXC series with a bang at the weekend, winning round three of the championship, held at Great Ayton in North Yorkshire in convincing style.
Sagar, who elected to miss the second round of the series in Devon, after suffering from tendonitis, was back on top in the series that he won in 2009, taking the third round win with a lead of over six minutes.
Sagar commented,"It's good to be back and even better to be back on top. To be honest it pretty much ran like clockwork and with the British Championship around the corner I didn't want to take any silly risks today. As ever, the RMX450Z ran perfectly and just continues to impress me more and more. If we can carry on like this, then there's a chance I can put a championship title under the Suzuki's belt in it's debut year, which would be nice."
Sadly for teammate Lee Edmondson, he would not enjoy such a successful day after being forced to retire through injury.
Team manager, Paul Edmondson, commented, "Well done to Tom. The most important thing from this round is that he's finished it injury free. We've got some big events ahead of us, and while it's important to stay fit and healthy he needs to be on a bike as much as possible to stay fit, so events like this are important for him. Lee on the other hand had a bit of an off today, but it doesn't seem too serious, so should be out at the next event."
