BEAUBIER'S FUTURE
Regardless of how he got it done,
the fact remains that Cameron Beau-
bier beat one of the elite riders in the
history of AMA Superbike. It remains
to be seen what Beaubier can do
now. At 22 (he'll be 23 in December)
the young Californian is at a critical
stage in his career. Yamaha would
surely like to keep him here to run the
number one plate in the series next
year, but many road racing pundits
wonder where that path would lead
Beaubier. If he comes back and wins
the series again, it's something he's
already done and probably won't add
a great deal to his cache among World
Championship teams. On the other
hand, you need to look no further than
the miserable season suffered last
year by 2013 AMA Superbike champ
Josh Herrin. Leaving too early can be
detrimental as well.
And so it remains. Beaubier looking
into the future, trying to determine
which path to take. Josh Hayes will be
back next year. The 40-year-old, who
bristles against his age, and rides with
Josh Hayes (1)
did everything he
could, but winning
both races was still
not enough to stop
Beaubier (6) from
taking his crown.
