As one of the only Finnish riders to be cutting ruts through the demanding tracks of the FIM Motocross World Championship, Harri Kullas already stands out. The teenager is a genuine star of the future and this potential was recognized by Yamaha Motor Europe and backed up shown by his rookie GP season in 2010 where he scored points in all but one of the thirty motos, reaching a high of fifth position on two occasions.

A super approachable and friendly member of the Yamaha Monster Energy crew, Kullas has dedicated himself entirely to his goal of succeeding at Grand Prix racing and has moved from his home to the confines of Lommel in Belgium to take advantage of the sandy tracks in the region and also place himself at one of the main European hubs for the motocross community.

A conservative riding stance on the MX2 YZ250F is supported by a wealth of hard work off the bike which means that Kullas’ condition and physical strength is one of his main calling cards. Kullas is an odds-on bet for a podium finish in 2011 as he looks to hike his young career onto the next level.
