EMX250

First win for Rossi in EMX250 while Reisulis is back on top of the EMX125 Presented by FMF Racing

Teutschenthal (Germany) 11 June 2023 – The Round of Germany offered incredible racings in both categories as riders dompted the old school circuit of Teutschenthal for their sixth round of the season.

In EMX250, it was Team VRT KTM Factory Juniors’ Marc-Antoine Rossi who won his first EMX250 round of his career with showing great speed in front of Red Plate holder Hutten Metaal Yamaha Racing Team’s Andrea Bonacorsi and BT Racing Team’s Kay Karssemakers getting his 4th consecutive podium.

In EMX125 presented by FMF Racing, Red Plate Holder MJC Yamaha Official EMX125’s Janis Martin Reisulis won in front of 737 Performers GASGAS’s Mathis Valin and Sturm STC Racing Team’s Mads Fredsoe who stepped on his first podium.



 

In race 1, the rider who took the best out of every rider was VRT KTM Factory Juniors’ Ferruccio Zanchiwho took the lead early on from Hutten Metaal Yamaha Racing Team’s Andrea Bonacorsi after few turns and kept on riding without looking behind. Zanchi went on to win the race in a dominant fashion while Bonacorsi settled for 2nd. 

On the back of his first EMX250 win in Latvia, Hutten Metaal Yamaha Racing Team’s Ivano Van Erp rode efficiently and kept his 3rd position.

Behind, Team VRT KTM Factory Juniors’ Marc-Antoine Rossi briefly overtook Van Erp for 3rd, immediatelycrashed and pick his bike up in 7th. Rossi showed us earlier this year that he has the capacities to fight for the top spot and the Frenchman came back up to the 4th spot. Rossi put the pressure on BT Racing Team’s Kay Karssemakers along the way on lap 9 of 15 for 4th and Karssemakers crashed after a mistake; Rossi went on to make a great comeback finishing 4th in the end Karssemakers had to settle for 6th in the end while Bud Racing Kawasaki’s Quentin Prugnieres capitalised on this mistake to finish 5th.

Husqvarna BT Racing Team’s Maxime Grau managed a good 7th place in front of KTM Beddini Racing Team’s Valerio Lata 8th in the end and Hutten Metaal Yamaha Racing Team’s Karlis Reisulis 9th while Fantic Factory Team Maddii’s Cas Valk made few mistakes and moved down from 6th on lap 1 to 10th in the end. 

In race 2, it was Rossi who took the strongest start this time and edged away very quickly to get a comfortable lead in front of Lata. Rossi raced amazingly setting the fastest lap of the race and cruised to the finish line showing a great pace and skill on this tough track. In the end, the Frenchman went 4-1 and won his first ever overall which consolidate him in 3rd in the Championship.

Lata took a great start and he went 2nd but got under pressure by the ever more consistent Karssemakers. Karssemakers was pushing very hard and Lata eventually made a little mistake on lap 7 of 15 which Karssermakers capitalised on to go 2nd until the checkered flag. Karssemakers got his 4th consecutive podium with a 6-2 for 3rd overall. 

Lata ultimately moved down to 4th after getting caught up by the Red Plate Bonacorsi on lap 10. Bonacorsi rode solidly this weekend despite not winning as he went 2-3 to get to the second step of the podium and extend his lead in the Championship. Lata went 8-4 for 6th overall.

Valk was again solid as he rode half of the race in 4th positon and only overtaken by Bonacorsi to finish 5th in the and 8th overall. Behind in race 2, Van Erp capitalised on Prugnieres getting stuck in a rut to move up to 7thand then piled pressure on his teammate Reisulis on lap 11 to finish 6th. Van. Erp went 5th overall while Reisulis finished 7th for 9th overall. After his mistake Prugnieres managed to keep his 8th place until the end to go 5-8 for 7th overall. 

Zanchi did not have the same success as in the first race as he went down early to find himself 24th on the turn of lap 1. He had a great comeback to finish 9th in the end but missed out on the podium.

In the end Marc-Antoine Rossi had a great first win in front of Red Plate Andrea Bonacorsi and the consistent Kay Karssemakers.

Marc-Antoine Rossi: “I am very happy for my first overall win. I made few mistake on the track in race 1 although I had a very good start. Today I took the Holeshot and kept the lead until the end. I feel like I did the job and super happy. I want to thanks the Team and a special mention to my mum as I win on her birthday”

In race 1, It was 737 Performers GASGAS’s Mathis Valin who had a flying start. The young Frenchman started the round of Germany as he finished the Round of Latvia and took the lead. MJC Yamaha Official EMX125’s Janis Reisulis quickly moved up to 2nd place in the first lap. Valin went on to lead Reisulis by 6 seconds. However, Valin lost precious time when he caught backmarkers and struggled to overtake them quickly. Being held, made his gap with Reisulis halved to 3 seconds. However, the speed of Valin was so fast and he managed to increase the gap again to 8 seconds. All could have been lost with a short moment of focus loss as Valin went out of the track on the very last lap but managed to stay on the bike and did not lose much time in the end.  Valin won the race displaying many skills. Reisulis had to settle for the 2nd place in the end

In 3rd position until lap 10 of 14 was WZ Racing Team’s Gyan Doensen who had a solid start but could not maintain his rhythm until the end as he saw Simone Mancini and Sturm STC Racing Team’s Mads Fredsoeovertaking him consecutively. Doensen finished 5th in the end while Mancini made a good operation from 7 on lap 1 to finishing 3rd and Fredsoe finished 4th.

August Frisk rode a solid race as he finished in front of Fantic Factory Team Maddii’s Elias Escandell who was had a great start and found himself 4th on lap 1 got completely stuck in a rut and saw number of riders pass him which underlines the challenges of the track. Escandell in the end had to settle for 7th. 

RFME GASGAS MXJUNIOR TEAM’s Francisco Garcia was 8th on lap 3 when he completely flew in the air and lost the control of his bike and pick it up in 16th. He did very well to get back up to 10th in the end behind Vitezslav Marek and Salvador Perez, 8th and 9th respectively.

In race 2, we saw Valin coming out the gate strongly with Fantic Factory Team Maddii’s Maximilian Wernerwho was back racing after missing out on race 1 for sickness. Both were at the front of the pack when over the third turn Valin attacked and showed the wheel to go in front but unfortunately Werner clipped is his rear wheel which made Valin crashed early on. 

Reisulis just behind benefited from Valin’s crash and kept going to take the lead off Werner a few turns later and edged away. Reisulis dominated the race until the end winning with an 18 second-gap. With a 2-1 Reisulis went on to win the round of Germany and increased his lead to the championship in front Valin. 

Despite crashing down early, Valin made a heroic come back after picking himself up last. Valin’s determination and talent made him overtake an incredible number of riders to get to 6th with 3 laps to go. Valin finished there in the end to get to the 2nd spot of the podium with a 1-6. He salvaged important points for the Championship behind Reisulis. 

Werner finished in 10th position, his sickness may have been the factor of his lack of rhythm as he progressively moved down the ranks. 

Finishing on the podium for the first time was Fredsoe who managed a strong and solid race to go 4th from start to finish, making 4-4 throughout the weekend and clinch the 3rd step of the podium. Fredsoe showed some solid ridings the whole weekend and it paid in the end. 

Another noticeable performance was the one from Garcia who made an excellent charge from the 9th place on lap 1 to show blistering pace and determination as the Spanish went on to finish 2nd in the end. The battle with Fredsoe for 4th over the lap 6 and 7 was intense but Garcia managed to make a pass and continued his strong performance by overtaking the surprising Nikolai Skovbjerg for 2nd on lap 9, and keep that position until the end. With a 10-2, Garcia unfortunately missed out on the podium for 3 point and finish 4th in the end. 

Although he finished 16th in race 1, Skovbjerg managed to finished 3rd in race 2 to secure his first ever top 3 finish. He displayed a lot of solidity which will be encouraging for the rest of the season.

Frisk had a good performance again as he finished 5th for a 6-5 and 5 overall while Yamaha Europe EMX125 MJC Julius Mikula ended in 7th place after a good comeback from 12th place as he went 13-7 for 9th overall. Zanocz managed to finish 8th for a 12-8 and a 10th overall. Salvador Perez stayed very consistent going 9-9 for 6th overall. 

In the end Janis Reisulis won his 3rd round win of the season in front of his closest rival Mathis Valin 2nd, who also won 3 round wins as share all the EMX125 wins of the season so far. Third and on the podium for the first time was Mads Fredsoe who rode solidly the whole weekend.

Janis Reisulis: “We are back at it after settling down a bit in the previous races. I was very motivated coming into Germany and I had a great weekend taking 2-1. I am also very happy to extend my lead in the Championship”

MXGP turns to Teutschenthal for the exciting Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany

MONACO (Principality of Monaco) 7 June 2023 - The FIM Motocross World Championship is coming to Germany for the ninth round of the 2023 season. The famous circuit of Teutschenthal will be hosting the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany, marking the 28th event, including the 2013 Monster Energy FIM MXoN, for this regular stop in the MXGP Calendar.

The hard pack of Talkessel Circuit in Teutschenthal is a must-stop of the MXGP season as the circuit always offers a good show for the large and passionate German public. In the past the top 3 in the Championship, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Jeffrey Herlings, Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing’s Jorge Prado and Kawasaki Racing Team’s Romain Febvre have all won on this track which is an interesting fact and will add to the high-intensity competition.

The Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany will also host the 6th round of the EMX250 and EMX125 presented by FMF Racing with Hutten Metaal Yamaha Racing Team’s Andrea Bonacorsi leading in EMX250 while MJC Yamaha Official EMX125’s Janis Reisulis leads the EMX125.
 


 

The Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany marked the 11th stop of the 2022 series with a dominant Team HRC's Tim Gajser who came out victorious in front of Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP Team’s Jeremy Seewer, second and Jorge Prado third.

In 2023, Jorge Prado is the leader of the Championship as he arrives in Germany. He just finished on the second step of the podium in Latvia but lost some points to the winner of the GP Jeffrey Herlings. The Spanish was not satisfied with his performance in Latvia and vowed to come in at Teutschenthal to win the Grand Prix. He has already won on this track in MX2 (2018, 2019) and will draw certainly from his experience to fight for the win. 

Jeffrey Herlings couldn’t be more confident as he comes to Germany on the back of the perfect weekend with a RAM Qualifying win and the two races on Sunday to win the MXGP of Latvia. Herlings bounced back quickly after a missed Grand Prix of France and is closing in on Prado at the top of the Championship and the track of Teutschenthal could be a good opportunity as he won once in MXGP in 2018 and twice in MX2 (2014, 2016). Herlings has been working on his starts and it shows as the ‘bullet’ gets closer to the front quicker which has brought him a lot of success over the last couple of months.

Romain Febvre is on a great form as he stepped on the last two podiums and added a race win to his name in France. In Latvia the Frenchman went 6-2 for a 3rd overall and while he still has not won a GP this season yet, he has shown that he is a constant threat for podiums. Febvre has won the GP of Germany in 2015 in MXGP during his MXGP World Champion year. His well-known technique and determination might be of great help to grab a first GP win this weekend.

12 points behind in 4th is Team HRC’s Rubén Fernández who went 9th overall in Latvia although the Spaniard showed his usual consistency as he finished 3rd in race 1 to only encounter bike problems in race 2 and could not finish where he wanted. However, his qualities are undeniable when all goes well with his bike as he seemed to have found the way to always fight for podium places since Switzerland. This weekend will be a good opportunity to get good points move towards the 3rd place in the Championship. 

Jeremy Seewer is still 5th in the Championship as he managed to salvage good points in Latvia with a 7-5 for 5th overall. Seewer had to draw a lot of energy in race 1 to move up to 7th after a poor start and showed that he is one to be resourceful when things don’t go his way and never gave up. The recent GP winner of France is on the rise and could well be one to watch in Germany this weekend on a track where he has not won yet.

Level on points on 6th place are two Dutch riders, Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP Team’s Glenn Coldenhoff and Team Gebben Van Venroy Yamaha Racing’s Calvin Vlaanderen both on 260 points. Coldenhoff managed a really strong 4-4 in Latvia to miss out the podium for only 1 point. The ‘Hoff’ is being steady recently as he is looking like he got into his usual rhythm to perform well. Vlaanderen is mister consistent with 8 top 10s in as many GP this season however he has not broken the 5th place’s ceiling so far although he has shown his incredible reliability and a good speed. He seemed determined to fight for an attainable podium with his quality riding. 

Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing’s Mattia Guadagnini and Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP Team’s Maxime Renaux, 8th and 9th in the Championship respectively are still out with injuries and will not participate in the MXGP of Germany however, 11 and 12 pints behind in 10th position is the talented SM Action Racing Team Yuasa Battery MXGP’s Alberto Forato. Forato could well find himself in the top 8 at the end of Germany as the Italian has shown great speed and control already in France despite having to retire, and in Latvia where he got the 7th place overall. The Italian is an exciting rider to watch as showed that he can compete with the top riders this season. It will be interesting to see if he can keep it up his pace this weekend to score important points. 

Home rider KTM Kosak Team’s Tom Koch is the first German rider in the Championship in 18th place with 66 points and will be excited to be riding at home with the added support from the home fans. His best results were just outside the top 10 in 11th position in Spain and France. Riding at home could give him that extra support to get into the top 10. 

His teammate, KTM Kosak Team’s Maximilian Spies is another German rider that will surely try to draw from the home support to beat his best result of the season that he clinched in Latvia (12th overall). KTM Sarholz Racing Team’s Henry Jacobi, the other home rider has made his comeback in France and Latvia and will use the home GP to get his fitness and speed back. The fast starter will want to get as many points as possible inn this special Grand Prix.

This weekend will also mark the return of JK Racing Yamaha’s Kevin Brumann to the competition after having to missed the MXGPs of France and Latvia due to an injury. He will be fully back on track in Teutschenthal.

In 2022, it was Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2 Team’s Thibault Benistant who won his only GP of the season ahead of Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2 Team’s Jago Geerts and WZ RACING TEAM’s Mikkel Haarup. 

New leader in the Championship, Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Kay de Wolf grabbed his first Red Plate at the MXGP of Latvia and went on to win his first GP of his career in an emphatic way with a win of the RAM Qualifying Race and a perfect 1-1 on Sunday to lift the trophy. Things could not go better for the Dutchman who showed so much consistency, thanks to the hard work he has put since the pre-season. The MXGP of Germany could be the ideal moment for him to increase his lead in the Championship and install himself even more into the role of leader of the MX2 Championship.

12 points behind, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Andrea Adamo received the Red Plate after the RAM Qualifying Race in Latvia but could not onto it after race 1 and de Wolf’s win. The Italian rider managed to get the 4th overall with a 5-4. Adamo is a model of consistency as has not been outside the top 4 over the last 6 Grand Prix and is determined to win another Grand Prix after Trentino. Adamo aims to win the Championship and has the qualities to do so. 

Getting back to the 3rd place in the Championship Thibault Benistant looks very fast recently. On the back of his GP win in France, the Frenchman rode amazingly in Latvia as he tightly missed out on a race win and had to dig deep in race 2 following a multi-rider collision that made him pick up his bike on last position. He managed to show all his talent to get back to 6th for a solid 3rd overall. Benistant is looking ready to fight for the Red Plate and will definitely think about his MX2 GP win in Germany last year when he will arrive this weekend in Teutschenthal full of confidence.

Jago Geerts is now 4th in the Championship as the Belgian is still out with a wrist injury sustained in France.

5th in the Championship, Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Roan Van de Moosdijk arrives in Germany with second podium of the season in Latvia with an excellent 3-3 for 2nd overall. Van De Moosdijk is keeping up with the top riders and shows that he can lead race as he has done in Latvia and earlier in the season in Switzerland. He is one to watch this weekend after getting more consistent and finding his fitness and flow back. 

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Liam Everts is a solid 6th in the Championship and comes in Germany on the back of another good performance with a 4-8 for 6th overall. Everts found his flow over the last 3 GPs as he looks comfortable on his bike and is always ready to put up a fight at the front of the pack. The KTM rider is on the rise and is showing a lot of maturity in his riding and will be a candidate for the podium in Germany.

7th in the Championship is Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing’s Simon Laengenfelder who is out for the MXGP of Germany as he is still injured while the 8th of series F&H Kawasaki Racing Team’s Kevin Horgmocontinues on his solid performance with a good 5th overall in Latvia. The Norwegian has consistently been in the top 10 this season and will vow to carry on that feat in Germany.

Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Lucas Coenen is 9th in the Championship but is one rider that has shown so much potential this season. His explosive starts and speed his exciting. He has not been on the podium yet this season probably due to the lack of consistency but he won a race already in his rookie year and has shown that he can really be a contender for podium finishes if he stays consistent over two races.

TEM JP253 KTM Racing Team’s Jan Pancar continues to be 10th in the championship although he has been out of overall top 10s finishing over the last three GPs. He will want to rectify this over the weekend in Germany and garner important points.
