Yamaha dominates 2016 Australian Endurance Championship

On May 21st 2016, Australia's fastest riders lined-up on the sandy-shores of the iconic St George Sailing Club at Sans Souci in Sydney's south to compete for the Australian Endurance Championship. As history now reveals, Team Yamaha's riders Mitch Wayt, Christian D'Agostin and Mitchell Casey dominated all three half-hour Enduro races to win the 2016 title in each class.

The reigning Australian Champion, Mitch Wayt #16, successfully defended his Stock-Class Championship-Title on his FZR SVHO. Wayt unleashed a dominate performance, utilising his skill and experience to win all three Stock-Class races from start to finish to claim the title for the second-consecutive year.

Ex-Kawasaki Racing Team Australia Rider now-turned Yamaha PWC Racer for PTS Racing, and reigning Endurance Champion, Christian D'Agostin #6, took the top-honours in the hotly-contested Open-Class. An impressive performance by the three-time Endurance Champion winning all three races on his FX Cruiser SVHO to claim his fourth-consecutive Endurance Title.

Debuting for the first time at a National event was Gold Coast WaveRunner's up-and-coming rider - Mitchell Casey #94. Casey's performance stunned all as he rode his showroom-stock FZS SVHO to win 1st-overall in the Manufacturer Stock-Class.

Casey was followed across the line by ex-Kawasaki Racing Team Australia Rider and PTS Racing Team-Rider Cameron Martin #8, who proved his pace in the varying conditions to claim 3rd-overall on his FZR SVHO.

Yamaha Motor Australia says it congratulate Team Yamaha on their fantastic results. They secured the premier-titles in all three classes at the 2016 Australian Endurance Championship. Thanks were also sent to the sponsors Yamaha Marina Bayside, Sydney Sea-Doo and Kawasaki's Wollongong City Jet Skis for their support, along with the volunteers, NSW PWC Club and racers for their time and efforts.
