Dakota Mamola to race in British 125cc Championship

We like to follow the up-and-coming racing careers of those race ‘brats’ who would like to follow the tracks of their famous fathers.
We’ve got the Rossi’s, the Roberts’, the Haslam’s, the Nieto’s, the Pons’ and several other racing families and we’ve also got Dakota, the 15 year old son of the iconic Randy Mamola.

Dakota won his first race last year in Valencia racing in Metrakit 125cc Pre-GP Campeonato Mediteraneo de Velocidad (Mediterranean Championship) with team Monlau, and this year will contest in twelve races in the British 125cc GP Championship and in several races in Spain.
Mamola will race for Team KRP, founded and managed by Mark Keen and supported by this year’s 125cc runner up Bradley Smith.
Dakota’s team mate will be Taylor Mackenzie (Red Bull Rookies Cup) and son of another famous GP rider and 3 times BSB champion, Niall Mackenzie.
Team Manager Mark Keen said: “It is fantastic news for the Championship and racing as a whole that Dakota joins us this season.
He has a famous family name, but he brings with him his own talent, focus and passion.

He’s just a good kid.
”Bradley Smith said: “Dakota Mamola joining the KRP team means a lot to me.
I am nervous because we have become good friends, but more than anything I am excited because Dakota has great talent and now we’re part of the Mamola history.
How exciting is that?”
