Michael Saller has his sights on round success as the 2013 Rotax Pro Tour makes its way to the coastal city of Geelong for the annual Jason Richards Memorial as the season winds into its closing stages ahead of the Rotax National Championships in September.

“I’ve raced at Geelong once before, the long straight makes for some exciting racing, however to match it with the
local Victorians I’ll have to bring my best driving with me.
“We are more than halfway through the championship, however getting a DNF in Newcastle really hurt our rankings standing, our focus going to Geelong is secure key results and deliver some good outcomes for the team,” Saller said.
After joining with Karting World and Tony Kart Australia earlier in the year, Michael has been working hard on his development as an overall driver, and adapting to work within a new team, every round is crucial for the young gun to improve as a whole.
“I'm feeling really comfortable with the handling of my Tony Kart after my second place at the CIK Stars of Karting round in Adelaide, I feel we have outright pace now and this along with my fourth pole position of the year at Bolivar, my focus is to now piece it all together and deliver a race winning package by the final.
“My immense thanks must go to Troy Farley, as well as my whole family and Tom Williamson from Karting World for helping guide me over the last few events, further more my sponsors MSP Shopfittings, Tony Kart Australia and TF Race Engines,” Saller concluded.
Round five of the Rotax Pro Tour and the Jason Richards Memorial will take place at Beckley Park International Raceway, Geelong, Victoria from May 24-26.
