KurveyGirl.com brings you the results of this weekend’s events.
Defending Champion Jake Gagne won MotoAmerica Medallia Superbike Race Two Sunday at Pittsburgh International Race Complex (a.k.a. PittRace), in Wampum, Pennsylvania. It was Gagne’s eighth win of the season on his Fresh N Lean Progressive Yamaha YZF-R1, extending his Championship point lead to where he can possibly clinch the 2023 title in Race Three later Sunday afternoon.
PJ Jacobsen was a very close runner-up, just 0.264 second behind Gagne on his Tytlers Cycle Racing BMW M 1000 RR.
Josh Herrin finished third on his Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati Panigale V4 R.
The race was red flagged seven laps into the original start for a crash involving five-time Superbike Champion Cameron Beaubier. Beaubier had run off track early in the race and was running ninth right behind Ashton Yates when Yates’ Aftercare Scheibe Racing BMW lost power momentarily coming out of the chicane. Beaubier ran into the back of Yates’ BMW, and as Beaubier was coming off his bike he was struck by Hayden Gillim and his Disrupt Racing Suzuki.
Beaubier suffered a bloody facial laceration but was seen awake and alert on video feeds after the incident.
The race was then restarted for an eight-lap final segment.
