Gobert Motorsports Yamaha rider Aaron Gobert has sealed victory in the Supersport category during Eastern Creek’s third round of the Yamaha Australian FX-Superbike Championship on 1-3 July.

The experienced former American and Australian national champion finished as top Supersport contender during Saturday’s FX Nationals and then repeated that feat on Sunday in the official Australian championship round.

Gobert set his best lap ever of the world renowned Eastern Creek Raceway on Sunday during race one with a 1:34.731 lap, before going on to top the Supersport field in all three races for the round.

In a successful weekend for Gobert aboard his Yamaha YZF-R6, he was also credited the ‘Formula Oz’ round win in the combined field against more powerful 1000cc machines.

“I was riding my spare bike over the weekend and it all went to plan once we got the settings right with the suspension,” Gobert explained.

“I was able to do my best lap that I’ve ever done around Eastern Creek on the 600 on Sunday morning, so that was a good achievement for me as well.

“It will be good to carry this momentum into racing for the rest of the season.”

Gobert will now set his sights on the final round of the Australian Supersport Championship, which will be contested at Phillip Island in Victoria on 18-20 November.
