If anyone thought the Vet +40 class was slowing down this season, River Glade proved otherwise.
Three rounds into the Atlantic Motocross Series, and this championship battle is becoming one of the most unpredictable stories of the year.
After strong performances at Clyde River MX and Mill Hill MX, 𝗥𝗼𝗯 𝗪𝗵𝘆𝗻𝗼𝘁𝘁 continues to hold the red plate with 101 points. But the margin is as slim as it gets.
Just one point behind sits 𝗝𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗣𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗿 with 100 points, proving that every position, every pass, and every moto matters as the season unfolds.
Meanwhile, Catlin Bent continues to quietly keep himself in championship contention. Another podium finish at River Glade moved him to within five points of the lead, keeping the pressure firmly on the riders ahead.
Then came River Glade.
𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘂 𝗟𝗮𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲 arrived and immediately grabbed the overall win. 𝗝𝗼𝗲𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 followed with a strong second-place finish, while several riders inside the championship hunt shuffled positions as the points battle tightened even further.
And that's what makes this class so interesting.
Experience matters.
Consistency matters.
But one great weekend can completely change the championship picture.
As the series heads toward Mt. Thom MX on Father's Day weekend, the question remains:
Who leaves with the momentum?
Will Rob Whynott hold onto the top spot?
Can Jean Pothier reclaim control?
Or will another veteran step forward and shake up the standings once again?
