PAR HONDA: Hawkins flies the flag for PAR Honda at the Hawkstone International

From  PAR Honda

The  annual Hawkstone International was the destination of the PAR Honda squad this  weekend. After success at the first round of the Maxxis British Championship at  Little Silver the team were looking forward to stretching their legs amongst  Europe's finest riders. Unfortunately the team suffered various injuries over  the weekend including foot damage to Brad Anderson and a serious back injury to  Ray Rowson.

Ray is  currently having further tests in hospital but the diagnose at this time is two  cracked vertebrae in his back – more information on Ray's injury will posted as  we get it.

This left  the youngest member of the team Luke Hawkins to fly the flag in amongst leading  contenders for this year's world motocross championship.

Brad  Anderson – MX1 "I was feeling good coming into this weekend but in the first  race I knocked my foot and stretched a ligament. We made the decision to not  race the second moto just in case, I should be fine for this weekend's first  round of the Red Bull Pro National at Foxhill.

Martin  Barr – MX2 Martin will explain why he didn't race at Hawkstone in this short  video interview. http://video.mpora.com/watch/RoRN9i960/  

Luke  Hawkins – MX2 "Today was all about testing my speed and fitness against some  world class opposition. Hawkstone Park is one of the most demanding tracks in  the world. I was happy with what I achieved and I now head to Foxhill fit and  raring to go at real race speed – I'm really looking forward to it."

Next  weekend will see the return of Scott Elderfield with his season debut at the  British Masters on the PAR Honda 450F, Brad, Martin and Luke will race at  Foxhill in the Red Bull Pro National series.

The team  wishes Ray Rowson a quick and healthy recovery and hope to see him back in the  awning real soon.
