Livingston, CA – The 51FIFTY Energy Drink Yamaha Team is pleased to extend their relationship with Hayden Mellross for the 2018 racing season. The likable Australian will return to the team and race the West Coast 250 Supercross Series aboard a 51FIFTY Energy Drink Yamaha YZ250F. 2018 will mark Mellross' third consecutive year with the team, dating back to his rookie Supercross season in 2016.

"The future looks bright," said Mellross. "I'm very excited to be back on the 51FIFTY Energy Drink Yamaha Team. We've spent the last two seasons building a strong relationship together and I'm excited to continue that partnership into the new year."

"The team is looking forward to having Hayden back for 2018," team manager Craig Monty said. "We've watched him mature as a rider throughout the past few seasons and believe he has what it takes to reach our team goals this year. We are ready to see him aboard the 51FIFTY Energy Drink Yamaha YZ250F once again."

Look out for the #63 51FIFTY Energy Drink Yamaha YZ250F at the gate drop of the 2018 West Coast 250 Supercross Series in Anaheim, California. We look forward to seeing all of our dedicated sponsors and fans at the opening round of the new season.

Judging by Tyler Bowers talk on that bike, I’m bummed he’s back on uncompetitive equipment.

Yep. Any team that ISN'T PC Kawi would be dumb to give him a ride.

Why would you pay a guy to talk crap about your bike?

Second rider hasn’t been announced, but Noah McConahy has been riding a 51FIFTY bike with his 2018 number around the Ca. tracks for a while now.

Mmmm, not that I disagree or not, but Melross was pretty good on that bike last year.

It might be that it just wasn't as good as what Bowers has ridden coming from PC, or that he was also pretty under prepared from all those injuries.

It would be interesting to hear Mellross honest opinion of the 51FIFTY Yamaha As he was straight up much better then his team mate bowers this year..

Id expect an East Coast based guy to be the second rider.
