From the moment the lights went out there was no stopping Doyle who started on the front row of the grid having qualified in third place. He wasted no time in hitting the lead at the end of the first lap and put in a great riding display, living up to his nickname of “the Dominator” and  showed brilliant confidence and maturity in the wet and was relatively unchallenged as he romped home to victory. He had the following to say “after narrowly missing out on the podium in race one, I was super determined for race two come or shine! I’m super-stoked to get my first win of the season especially in these challenging wet conditions; thanks must go to the team for giving me an awesome weapon this weekend”

Doyle who is racing for the Giaccmoto Yamaha Team on a 700cc YZF R7 bike was unlucky to not be on the podium in the opening race of the weekend where he finished in fourth place after having led the race for a couple of laps.

Twenty two year old Doyle, who was schooled at St. Dominic’s Priory in primary school before moving to Pearson High School, completed his matric year in America at Columbus North High School in Indiana is now working in New York City.

Whilst Dominic was flying around the wet track surface in America his father Ronnie who also races motorcycles at Aldo Scribante Raceway,  was battling the blustery elements in Gqberha competing in the Isuzu Ironman 70.3 in the 55-59 age group which he completed in a time of 08:07:57.
