By Bike Review • 3 years ago •

After taking a fill-in ride with Serco Yamaha halfway through the 2020 season, Jesse Dobson grabbed the opportunity with both hands and now turned it into a full time ride with the Yamaha MX2 team in 2021. He will join Nathan Crawford in the two pronged attack contesting the MX2 championship.

Yamaha said Dobson adjusted instantly to the YZ250F.

Dobson adjusted instantly to the Yamaha YZ250F and gelled with the team and the results showed on the track. Yamaha have said his speed was right there with the best MX2 pilots in Australia and with the extra time to fine tune his training and riding, Dobson expects to be a major player in MX2 Pro MX and the Australian Supercross championships in the season ahead.

“I said when I moved to the MX2 class at the start of 2020 that I wasn’t going to be there to make up the numbers and that I wanted success and that hasn’t changed,” Dobson warns. “In fact, it has only got stronger as I was able to use 2020 as a season to gain experience back on a 250 and learn how to ride one properly and effectively again.”

Dobson used the short 2020 season to regain experience on the 250.

“I’m stoked to re-sign with Serco Yamaha and have a great bunch of people around me. The bikes are awesome, and we have a great list of team sponsors who provide us with the tools to win races and championships.” He said.

Team owner, Gavin Eales, likes how his team has come together and after a year of not much on track action, is recharged and ready to go for season 2021.

You can catch Dobson in the Pro Mx series and the Australian Supercross Championship.

“In Nathan and Jesse we have two hard working and dedicated athletes who are both focused on winning races. Both of them enjoy the training aspect of racing and now bring a lot of experience to the team as they have been on the scene for several years now. It’s also a benefit that both live near our team base in Brisbane which makes life much easier when testing and maintaining bikes.”

“We have also been fortunate to be with Yamaha Motor Australia and continue our relationship into its 21st year and the team will be the show case for the range of high performance products Serco distributes in Australia.”
