CODY KITCHENS WINS AGAIN IN SPANISH YAMAHA R6 CUP AT VALENCIA

Cody Kitchens raced his Andifer Racing Team Yamaha R6 to another victory, this time at Circuit Ricardo Tormo (Valencia) on September 11th at the fourth round of the Yamaha R6 Cup, in the Rookies division.

Valencia is one Spanish track that Cody has ridden and tested on, which was good as he missed all but one of Friday’s free practice sessions travelling back to Spain from Italy, where he had been involved in the Red Bull Rookies Cup selection process. Cody made the most of Saturday’s two qualifying sessions to end up 7th overall on the grid, starting from the inside of row three.

From his good grid position, Cody slotted into sixth overall on the first lap, and was able to gap the riders behind him until brake problems caused him to have to ride differently to conserve the brakes. Towards the end, he lost one position to another R6 Cup rider (in a different category), but still finished sixth overall and first Rookie.

“I dropped my lap times by several seconds from when I got here on Friday, and the bike felt good,” said Cody. “It’s a shame the brake problems cropped up, but I adjusted my braking to conserve them for where I needed them most.”

Cody continues to lead the points in the Rookies division of the 2022 Yamaha R6 Cup (www.challengeyamaha.com).

Cody’s next event of the 2022 Yamaha R6 Cup is September 30th through October 2nd, back at Jerez where the series started in June.

For the 2022 season, Cody Kitchens is proud to be sponsored by MT Helmets, Three Chihuahua Racing (www.threechihuahuaracing.com) and Pakosta37 Riders Factory.
