AMA SBK: Hayes Set To Storm Homestead
Even with a 98-point lead, Josh Hayes isn't about to relent now…

PROGRAMMING NOTE: This weekend's AMA Pro Road Racing race action from Homestead-Miami Speedway will air on SPEED Saturday and Sunday evening starting at Midnight ET.
With 13 AMA Pro National Guard Superbike victories so far this season, including an unprecedented, AMA-record 10 wins in a row, Josh “Hurricane” Hayes is set to storm into Homestead-Miami Speedway for Round 11 of the GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing season. He’ll be joined by the rest of the Yamaha U.S. Road Racing Teams, which include the talented, hard-working riders and crew members who make up Monster Energy/Graves/Yamaha and Yamaha Extended Service/Graves/Yamaha.
The first order of business will be for two-time defending Superbike Champion Josh Hayes to try to earn his 10th pole out of 10 this season aboard his powerful, crossplane-crankshaft #1 Yamaha YZF-R1.
“I go hard from the start,” Josh said. “Maximum speed, maximum laps, race wins. The 98-point lead in the championship is obviously great, but I still want to win every race from here on out. I’m not about to let up.”
As the season has progressed, one of Josh’s toughest competitors has arisen from right within the Monster Energy/Graves/Yamaha team. Superbike rookie Josh Herrin has fully acclimated to his #2 R1, and he presents a formidable challenge to the reigning Superbike King.
“It’s been a good season for me so far,” Josh Herrin said. “But, I still badly want to win. I’ve proven that I can hang with Josh for a couple of laps, but I need to step up my game even further. Holeshots and first-lap leads don’t win races. We’ve got four races left this season. Let’s see what happens.”
