Bel-Ray Supported Rider, Max Nagl, Takes Overall Win in Patagonia, Argentina

For Third Round of MXGP 

Nagl’s Argentine Results Elevate Him to 2^nd in Overall Championship Points

Before the Series Heads to Italy April 19

FARMINGDALE, N.J. (March 31, 2015) – The 2015 MXGP season is proving to be incredibly exciting one for Bel-Ray sponsored Red Bull IceOne Husqvarna Factory Racing rider Max Nagl. Following an overall win at the third round of the series in Patagonia Argentina, Nagl elevated himself to second in overall championship points as the teams head to Europe to compete in Italy, April 19.

Nagl’s overall win in Patagonia came as the result of a top three finish in the opening race and a holeshot that was followed by a first place finish in Moto2, positioning the German within ten points of championship leader, Clement Desalle.

“This is a fantastic result. I’m so happy for everyone involved that made this victory happen – it was a real team effort,” said Nagl. “With two wins from three rounds in these flyaway races I’m really excited to return to Europe for the next round in Italy.”

Bel-Ray has a long history of participating in and sponsoring riders competing in international motorsports. Bel-Ray supports Nagl as a result of a partnership with Husqvarna in which the brand is the recommended factory fill lubricant for each of Husqvarna’s powersports products.

FARMINGDALE, N.J. (March 31, 2015) – Bel-Ray sponsored rider, Jason Anderson, secured a third place finish in the 450SX final of the 13^th round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross in St. Louis, Missouri, on Saturday evening.

Anderson has shown to be an extremely consistent mid-pack rider for the Rockstar Energy Racing Husqvarna Factory Team throughout the season.

“I’m happy to get my Husqvarna up there on the podium and I’m pumped for my team,” said Anderson. “The track was mellow, but the transitions were a little technical. All-in-all I felt good, and this is something that we definitely needed to go into the weekend off.”

With Saturday’s finish, his second podium this season, Anderson elevated himself two spots to tie with Yoshimura Suzuki Factory Racing’s Blake Baggett for 6^th place in the 2015 championship.

“We’re looking forward to the next round of Monster Energy Supercross, there should be lots of Bel-Ray blue on track” said Bel-Ray Vice President of Marketing, Leah Herrington. “The Rockstar Energy Racing Husqvarna Factory Team will return with an almost full team as Zach Bell and Zach Osborne compete in the next two rounds of the 250SX West Championship, and we should have Ken Roczen back from injury, riding for RCH Soaring Eagle/Jimmy Johns/Suzuki Factory Racing. We wish all of our Bel-Ray supported riders the best of luck and look forward to helping them chase strong finishes in Houston and throughout the rest of the season.”

For their next race, Bel-Ray sponsored riders will head to Houston, Texas for the 14^th round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross to race at NRG Stadium on April 11.
