"Hawkstone is not atrack Jake normally excels at but Jake proved yesterday that he is more thangetting the better of the sandy Shropshire circuit. Two good starts and twostrong, determined rides bought his best ever British Championship result. I'mvery happy with his performance and the Yamaha YZ450F"
