With Romain and Tony also behind we had a nice race and in the end, I managed to pass Romain on the last lap so it was good”. This year they prepared the track a little different, especially in the first race.

Tim Gajser: “It was a good Sunday of racing. It was easy to make a mistake, so I thought let’s bring it home and make this 93rd GP victory happen”. I ran short of breath during the second race in the last 4 laps, the guys were pushing hard. I was really not happy about this mistake we lost a lot of points but of course today was very good and I really enjoyed the track.

Of course, I was disappointed with last week. In the first race I had a really good start and immediately after a few corners I made my way into first place and then pushed as fast as I can. Heading into the third round of the FIM Motocross World Championship, Tim Gajser continues to lead with 93 points, as Jeffrey Herlings sits second in the championship standings just 15 points behind and Romain Febvre is third a further 5 points back.Īntonio Cairoli: “Actually, I enjoyed race two more because it was nice with all the passing, and it was nice to be back battling. Febvre ended up fourth overall just 2 points off the podium. The last two laps of the heat were intense, as Gajser and Febvre traded positions, with Gajser eventually able to make a pass on the Frenchman stick, on the final lap, and edge out slightly to take the chequered flag.Ĭairoli topped the podium, with Gajser second and Herlings third. Cairoli kept up with the leaders and at one point it looked like both Gajser and Cairoli were in for the chance of stealing the race win from Febvre. Gajser worked away at the gap lap by lap and towards the end of the race he was right on Febvre’s tail. Prado also lost another position, this time to Gajser as he got up into second and then it was game on as the Slovenian rode patiently behind Febvre for most of the race. Seewer then lost a position to Herlings who took 5th from the Swiss. The opening lap was exciting, with Prado taking the lead from Cairoli and then Febvre doing the same as Gajser got himself up into third. In race two it was Febvre who grabbed the second Fox Holeshot, though much like in the opening heat, Cairoli was quick to get out in front. In the end it was Cairoli who secured his first race win of 2021, with Prado 2nd and Herlings 3rd. With 2 laps to go Cairoli stretched out his lead to 8.731 seconds over Prado, with Herlings, Gajser and Coldenhoff completing the top 5, as Romain Febvre from Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team chased down Jonass.
