2012 Australian MotoGP Wildcards announced

Ride of a lifetime for two young Aussies

Motorcycling Australia (MA) has announced the wildcard recipients for the 2012 AirAsia Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix to be held at Phillip Island from October 26-28.

Two wildcard positions have been awarded for the event, with one rider selected by MA and one rider selected by the FIM.

Queensland rider Lincoln Gilding will take his place on the Moto3 start grid as the MA wildcard, fresh from a standout season in the Australian Superbike Championship Moto 3 class.

Gilding will be joined in Moto3 by West Australian young-gun Sam Clarke, who has been awarded the FIM wildcard ride for the event.
