When talking with Chris Lynis of Moto National he said “We here at Moto National, distributor for Shell Advance, have been as disappointed as anyone else at the forced cancellations of the last two rounds due to extreme weather conditions. Now that QMX and MQ have taken the unprecedented step of re-scheduling those meeting at a later date, we can all look forward to another strong series of racing.”

“In working with the recent circumstances that are beyond our control, the close working alliance between QMX, MQ and myself to get a resolution that encompasses the Competitor, the Sponsors and the effected Clubs has ensured the best interests of the Series are at heart and we are extremely happy with the above outcome” said Katherine Rumble, Series Race Secretary.
