Fifth and eighth overall at the MXGP of Argentina for Team HRC
|
11 comment(s)
Team HRC’s Gautier Paulin and Evgeny Bobryshev finished today’s Grand Prix of Argentina in fifth and eighth places overall respectively, but the numbers don’t tell the whole story.
Light drizzle fell at the start of the opening race and for the opening few laps, but did little more than dampen the track. Bobryshev emerged strongly from turn one in third, and despite slipping to eighth at one point the resurgent Russian finished fifth – his best result since the Italian GP in June last year, just before the injury in the second race of that GP that ruled him out for the rest of the season.

Herlings excels at Thailand to take MX2 victory with double race wins
Red Bull KTM Factory Racing welcomed Jeffrey
“The Bulletâ€
Herlings back to the podium with a double race win in the MX2 GP of Thailand on Sunday with two dominant race wins to preserve his four race - two GP victory streak at the end of the second round.
Herlings’ teammate Pauls Jonass of Latvia, who has just moved permanently up to MX2 from the European-level championship, was a very impressive second place overall to indicate that KTM already has an eye on the future and the next generation of GP winners.
Ryan Villopoto wins in Thailand

9 comment(s)
Ryan Villopoto clinched victory for the Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team in stifling heat at the Nakhonchaisri raceway, which hosted the Thai round of the FIM World MXGP Motocross Championship.
The ten times US champion showed an immediate liking for the man-made track 35 miles west of the Thai capital Bangkok as he won the qualification race by an amazing 33 seconds as the hard work of midweek suspension testing in Europe paid dividends. With temperatures soaring above 100 degrees Fahrenheit RV2 was content to control the first GP moto by a smaller margin on race day, but was never seriously challenged after sweeping past teammate Tyla Rattray for the lead before turn three. After being forced off the track through the early turns of race two Ryan needed three laps to advance to third place, at which stage the leader already held a five second advantage. The leading trio matched each other's pace for several laps before the Kawasaki leader, secure in the knowledge that his placing would give him the overall success on the day, took no risks to secure the honour. He has also moved up the championship table to fourth, just 18 points shy of the series pacesetter.
Ryan's teammate Tyla Rattray reinforced the power of the KX450F-SR and the commitment of the entire Kawasaki Racing Team when he grabbed the Holeshot award in the first moto and the South African maintained his leaderboard ranking all race to finish eighth. After another strong start in race two, Tyla again finished eighth and has now moved to eleventh in the series standings after two events of the 18 round series. The series continues with round three at Neuquen in Argentina on March 28/29.

3 comment(s)
It was a day of mixed emotions for Team HRC in Thailand today as the true performances of Gautier Paulin and Evgeny Bobryshev were hampered by crashes that meant the pairing had to fight their way through the field in both races.
The races today were run in very tough conditions as the temperature reached 38 degrees Celsius, leading the organisers to cut the second race duration by five minutes.

Livia Lancelot wins the opener GP in Qatar
|
8 comment(s)
Livia Lancelot took her Team 114 Kawasaki to a double victory in the opening rounds of the FIM Women's World Motocross Championship at Losail in Qatar and was joined on the podium by Meghan Rutledge.
The Kawasaki girls quickly settled in to third and fourth places at the start of the opening moto to keep a watchful eye on the leaders around the tricky track in the desert just outside Doha. When the leading girl fell, both Kawasaki girls, with Meghan in front aboard the Monster Bud Racing Kawasaki, pounced on the new leader to quickly establish their dominance. On the seventh of eleven laps the French girl made a clever inside pass on the Australian teenager to lead to the finish, but a couple of errors allowed the defending champion Kiara Fontanesi to push Meghan down to third.
Podium for Dylan Ferrandis in Qatar

Dylan Ferrandis started the FIM World MX2 Motocross Championship with a podium finish at Losail in Qatar for the Monster Energy Kawasaki MX2 Racing Team.
The young Frenchman showed tremendous speed to storm past ex-champion Jeffrey Herlings on the seventh of seventeen laps in the opening race and immediately pulled away until he became nervous and made a few mistakes which allowed his rival to catch and pass him again. Determined to make amends in race two Dylan grabbed the holeshot, but was caught by surprise further round the opening lap. Determined not to make the same mistake as in race one when he showed his card too early Dylan settled in behind Herlings. Unfortunately he was forced to change lines and crashed when his front wheel dropped into a hole. Losing many places Dylan eventually recovered to fifth place in the moto, which guaranteed him a place on the overall podium for the day in third place.

Gautier Paulin capitalised on his qualifying performance yesterday to seal third place overall today in Qatar, getting his season with Team HRC off to a strong start with a podium from his first Grand Prix riding the Honda CRF450RW.
Taking a fourth place in race one, Gautier then leapt into second position from the start of race two. In a race-long battle with Clement Desalle and Antonio Cairoli, the Frenchman fought hard to hold third place at the line, guaranteeing him third spot overall.

Team HRC eagerly anticipate the 2015 MXGP opener in the Qatar desert
The 2015 MXGP season kicks off this weekend with the now regular season-opener at the floodlit track of Losail, Qatar. Team HRC riders Evgeny Bobryshev and Gautier Paulin will be looking to build on the Honda CRF450RW’s success in Qatar from last year, where it took a moto victory.
Qatar will signal Bobby’s return to GP racing after a 2014 season hampered by injury. The popular Russian rider has not competed in a GP since Maggiora in June of last year so, after an off-season spent getting back to optimal fitness, he is hungry to make a strong return in the season opener.

First win for Tixier and Kawasaki
|
4 comment(s)
For his first race on the 250 Kawasaki Monster, reigning MX2 World Champion Jordi Tixier did a couple of perfect races in Hawkstone Park (Great Britain) as he won the MX2 class and battle with the 450 in the last race of the weekend.
After one month of intensive training in Southern France, Jordi joined teammate Thomas Covington in Great Britain for their first pre season race. So early in the season the riders faced some foggy conditions during the practice sessions, but the track was nearly perfect for the races with two heats per class and one super final to end the program. In both MX2 races Jordi came second at the start and then moved to the lead, winning both races to ensure the overall MX2 win. In the super final, as the 250 riders start a few seconds earlier than the 450, Jordi led the first part of the race and then battled with the fastest 450 riders for the final win; third overall and first MX2 rider, Jordi will now race Valence International next weekend alongside Dylan Ferrandis and Thomas Covington.

Moscow hosts club motocross tournament
On January 31, Moscow hosted another RRG club motocross tournament in Krylatskoye.
38 motocross fans participated. Chilly temperatures of around minus 12, bright sunshine, and even the first truly sunny day this winter all added to the unique atmosphere of this sporting event. The tournament was followed by an award ceremony and a gala dinner. There was no way the sun, ice, or frost could possibly cancel the event.
