King retired from the Australian scene last year, but has received a call-back from Team Principal Craig Dack following the unfortunate news that young gun Matt Moss broken wrist, sustained in the opening round of the Supercross championship, is yet to fully heal. ‰ÛÏI am stoked to be able to come back for a one off race,‰Û

Far exceeding his own goals and expectations, the Queensland teenager is eager to maintain the fast-finishing form and bring home a good points haul at Broadford. ‰ÛÏI‰Ûªm pumped to get started and know that I‰Ûªm now a real contender for top 5 placings,‰Û

Back on a YZ250F, McCoy is leading the way in Pro Lites and is eager to make his mark early in the motocross season with a top finish at Broadford for his Serco Yamaha squad. ‰ÛÏIt was pretty devastating to come so close to the Supercross title and lose by 1 point and I really want to make every moto count to make sure I have the upper hand,‰Û
