JD takes podium finish in Race 1 at Pittsburgh

JD Beach notched his 12th podium result of the season, with his third-place finish in Saturday’s Supersport Race 1 at the Pittsburgh International Race Complex, new to the MotoAmerica race calendar for 2017.

The fan-favorite, Kentucky-based rider said, “I know I can’t win all the races, but I wish I could have been closer to the front and in the fight. We’re pretty far back in the points, and we don’t have a lot of races left. But, we’re not giving up, and we’ll work on some things so we can come back strong tomorrow.”

Supersport Race 2 from Pittsburgh International Race Complex will go green on Sunday at 2:25 PM EST.
