Motocross: James Stewart To Sit Out Unadilla
Cycle News Staff | August 8, 2014
James Stewart will not suit up for tomorrow’s National MX round at Unadilla.
James Stewart has chosen to sit out tomorrow’s 10th round of the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship at Unadilla. Stewart has been dealing with a health issue since pulling out of the second moto of the Spring Creek National three weeks ago. He skipped the last round at Washougal and will again opt out this weekend.
“We’re just not ready for Unadilla,” said Yoshimura Suzuki Team Manager Mike Webb. “It’s been a tough road lately and James hasn’t felt well enough to put in the time on the bike that’s necessary to compete safely. He’s only now getting back into his normal training regimen on the Yoshimura Suzuki RM-Z450. Obviously, this isn’t how we’d hoped to finish the 2014 season, especially after starting strong by sweeping the High Point National. But right now, we’re trying to support James so he can be ready for Indiana.”
Stewart’s Yoshimura Suzuki team says that Stewart is expected to suit up for round 11 at the Indiana National in Crawfordsville, August 16.
