DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.: Chaz Davies of Wales was named the winner of Saturday's Daytona 200 AMA Formula Xtreme Series race at Daytona International Speedway after Josh Hayes was disqualified on a technical violation.
Davies, whose Attack Kawasaki entry finished second to Hayes in the season-opening race, was awarded the victory after a postrace inspection of the top three finishers found that the crankshaft on Hayes' Honda had been illegally altered.
Kawasaki's Steve Rapp, the 2007 Daytona winner, was moved from third to second in the official results, with Larry Pegram's Ducati in third.
In the opening round of the AMA Superbike championship, six-time Superbike champion Mat Mladin led all 15 laps on his way to a 3.368-second victory over his Suzuki teammate Ben Spies
