The Motocross World Championship will continue on Wednesday with the second match at the Faenza track in Emilia Romagna. The pole for this event was secured in the MXGP class with an attack three minutes before the end of the Slovenian Tim Gajser on the HRC Honda with a time of 1: 52.289 min.
Gajser was able to catch up with the speedy Lithuanian Arminas Jasikonis with the Husqvarna factory by 0.135 seconds. Third place went to Swiss Yamaha rider Jeremy Seewer, who was already strong on Sunday and crossed the finish line twice in second place. The other starting positions are Glenn Coldenhoff (GasGas), Jorge Prado (Red Bull-KTM) and the official Kawasaki rider Romain Febvre.
Gajser gave himself a nice present for his 24th birthday: “I’m super happy. I feel very good. The track is well prepared and I am looking forward to the races this afternoon. I want to try to make two good starts, I missed it on Sunday. “
On the other hand, World Championship leader Jeffrey Herlings (Red Bull-KTM) struggled, who was 18th in free practice after three fast laps and then slipped. Therefore, the Dutchman went to the Medical Center for a check and was therefore unable to participate in timed practice.
The winner of the first Faenza event on Sunday is already on his way to Bologna hospital, where an MRI of the head and neck is due, as announced by KTM. The first signs are positive, Herlings can move, they say.
Herlings’ crash occurred between turns 1 and 2 when Herlings hit a groove in the long waves. Herlings was on the slopes for a long time, nothing is known about injuries.
