Kawa East is the leader after Bellpuig and Agueda

Monday, April 28th, 2008

A Dutch team from Oschatz is the new leader of the Motocrossvirtual series after the second and third round: Bellpuig in Catalunya, Spain and Agueda in Portugal.

Little things to say about the first, where the rain falled from Friday night and the extremely muddy track became in very special results and a cancelled second moto in the MX1 category.

So, low points at this GP, with 155 for the winner of the event, WORLD RACING from Italy.

Next was Agueda in Portugal. Great motos and spectacular victories for Cairoli and Philipaerts, whick make them world championship leaders.
Good race for Team pul’s motors with 251 points, followed by mlv racing and Triple 3 racing.

So, in the main classification, Kawa East is leader above Freedom MX from Andorra, who is getting closer step by step, point by point.

Strijbos and Rodrigues injured

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Grand Prix Kawasaki Racing’s Kevin Strijbos is almost certain to miss the next three rounds of the MX1 World Motocross Championship after undergoing minor surgery to repair an injured thumb.

It was in a free practice session at the Spanish GP in Bellpuig. Although in a lot of pain, Strijbos pushed on through the power-sapping slop on his factory KX450F-SR to an impressive sixth placed finish in Sunday’s one and only points paying moto.

Joaquim Rodrigues  rode hard at Valkenswaard, and he had the speed at Bellpuig, but a crash on the start of the first moto and he broke a rib. He will be out for around six weeks.

Guys, review your teams for Agueda before Friday!
