Press Release Press Release Motocross of European Nations in Pacov (Czech Republic) It has been an awesome weekend in Czech Republic as the 2014 Motocross of European Nations was held at the old school circuit of Pacov. Earlier on Saturday an opening ceremony was held trackside where each nation was introduced. Following the team presentations, the selection of nations for qualifying heat order was drawn at random by Chairman of FIM Europe Motocross Commission Eddie Herd. After qualifying yesterday, the Italians lined up on pole today in both Motocross of European Nations and Women’s Motocross of European Nations divisions. While they embraced the early buffer it’s a commonly known fact that nothing in motocross is set in stone, especially when rain and weather becomes a factor. Despite the early morning lashing of rain which lathered the hilly hard packed circuit of Pacov, the Italians brought their ‘A’ games and were rewarded accordingly. In the EMX125/250 division Honda Gariboldi’s Tim Gajser was out to show Europe what he is made of. The Slovenian was super quick out of the gate snatching the holeshot in race one and checking out to cross the line half a lap ahead of Brian Bogers who was flying the flag high for The Netherlands in second. Chasing Bogers home archrival Michele Cervellin, from Italy, pushed the Dutchman to the checkers but couldn’t quite find a way through meaning he would have to settle for third ahead of Frenchman Nicolas Dercourt and local hero Czech Vaclav Kovar. It was an unfortunate state of affairs in the second moto for Slovenia’s high-flyer Tim Gajser as his day came undone when he buried his bike in a patch of deep mud. While Gajser battled to free himself, Dutchman Brian Bogers took the reigns to bring home a comfortable victory for The Netherlands. Meanwhile behind him, there was a mean battle for second as Frenchman Nicolas Dercourt went head to head with one of the local legends Martin Krc. Despite Krc’s impressive effort, when the checkers were waved it was Dercourt who took the 22 points for second. Coming home in a comfortable fourth the Italian Michele Cervellin held off the best finishing 125cc two-stroke rider of the day Frenchman David Herbreteau. In the EMX85 it was a carbon copy performance of yesterday for Dutchman Roan Van De Moosdijk who soared his way to a convincing victory ahead of Italian Paolo Lugana. A further seventeen seconds back from the top two, Frenchman Calvin Fonvielle took third ahead of another Czech star on the rise Petr Polak. Young Italian speedster Gianluca Fachetti rounded out the top five. FIM Europe Press Office Contacts Via Giulio Romano, 18 I-00196 Tel +39 06 3226746 Roma - ITALY E-mail: [email protected] Facebook: europeanmotorcycling Press Release In race two, Roan Van De Moosdijk proved to be untouchable once again, cleaning up for another win while the tiny Italian stallion Gianluca Fachetti had a brief run in with French wonder Calvin Fonvielle but soon shook him for a comfortable second. Fonvielle settled in third while San Marino’s Andrea Zanotti and Italian Paolo Lugana rounded out the top five. After the points where tallied up, Italy topped the Motocross of European Nations charts with their team of Michele Cervellin, Joakin Furbetta, Gianluca Fachetti and Paolo Lugana, while The Netherlands put in a super strong effort with their team of Brian Bogers, Rene De Jong, Roan Van De Moosdijk and Rick Elzinga for second. Last year’s champions, France, were forced back to third with their team of Nicolas Dercourt, David Herbreteau, Calvin Fonvielle and Brian Moreau Strubhart, while the locals Team Czech Republic, Vaclav Kovar, Dusan Drdaj, Petr Polak and Daniel Stehlik edged out Team Slovenia for fourth, who used the awe-inspiring performance of Tim Gajser in race one combined with the efforts of his young teammates Luka Milec and Jan Pancar and Miha Bubnic to wrap up this edition of the MXoEN in fifth.

  • The Monster Energy Mxgp of the Usa Makes the Curtain Call
    THE MONSTER ENERGY MXGP OF THE USA MAKES THE CURTAIN CALL GLEN HELEN (United States), 16 September 2015 – It has been an epic season so far and this weekend one of the most famous motocross tracks in the world, Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino, California will host the final round of the FIM Motocross World Championship. The first time the FIM Motocross World Championship tackled the beast that is Glen Helen was back in 1990 where Belgian Eric Geboers was victorious. The motocross grand prix then returned again for the two years that followed, in 1991 and 1992, where French legend Jean-Michel Bayle headlined. Eighteen years after Bayle’s victory in ’92, MXGP returned where both world champions at that time Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Antonio Cairoli and Marvin Musquin won in their respective classes. What is exciting is that both Cairoli and Musquin will be racing this weekend while the winners of the most recent grand prix at Glen Helen, in 2011, Clement Desalle and Ken Roczen will not be onsite as they are both recovering from injuries. Yamaha Factory Racing Yamalube’s Romain Febvre has never raced in the USA and will be looking forward to put in some laps out here in Southern California. It will be interesting to see how he goes on the unfamiliar territory and with a lot of new names and faces on the gate. Hitachi Construction Machinery Revo KTM’s Shaun Simpson is one name that is recognized in the USA. Simpson, who raced a round of the American Nationals back in August, has been open about how pumped he is to return to the US for a grand prix.

    Press Release EMX125 and 300 at the start As the 2017 FIM Motocross World Championship takes to the demanding dark sand of Valkenswaard so to will the season opener of the EMX125 class Presented by FMF Ra - cing. With FMF Racing rene - wing is presenting sponsorship of both the EMX125 and EMX300 classes, it clearly shows, once again, its support for the top level of two stroke racing in Europe. Photo @Youthstream FMF, Flying Machine Factory, is a world leader in aftermarket power exhaust systems for dirt bikes and ATV’s, and was set up in 1973 by a youthful twenty-two year old by the name of Donny Emler, a typical Southern California native who like everybody else in the seventies found the urge to ride and race dirt bikes simply irresistible. While FMF’s bread and butter have be taken care of on home turf in America you may have noticed their presence gain traction in MXGP over the past few years, not only as a series partner but also as team sponsors with Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing as one of the main beneficiaries. You can sense the 2-stroke thing is something the team at FMF still feels passionately about, which is no surprise considering that two of FMF’s biggest advocates are the biggest 2-stroke fans; the boss himself and a former 250cc world champion, Danny LaPorte. David Luongo, Youthstream Vice-President and Head of Operations stated: “It has always been our target to maintain and to develop the two-stroke series! They are so important for our sport, for the development of the young riders.

The third edition of the FIM Off Road Awards was a superb celebration where all the Off Road World and European Champions received their prize after an extremely battled but successful season of racing. Surrounded by the beautiful night view of the Monte Carlo bay, and with an orchestra playing in the background, all the authors of this fantastic 2007 season were given a prize representing the reward of their hard work. The riders, the Federations and the organizers played a very important role this year, cooperating with Youthstream, FIM and UEM in the organization of a superb season of sport. 400 guests were entertained during the whole evening, which started with a press conference at 6.00 pm and continued in the magnificent Salle des Etoiles with the gala dinner and the Awards ceremony. 04/12/2007 Pagina 2 di 8 A view of the crowded Salle des Etoiles Among the many prize giving ceremonies of the night, which saw a brand new duo of presenters made of Frenchman Francis Magnanou and American Amanda Woods, one of the most moving moments of the night happened when Youthstream President Giuseppe Luongo suddenly stopped the regular program of the event to call up on stage some of the riders who made the history of the sport managed by Youthstream: Michele Rinaldi, Eric Geboers, Jean Michel Bayle, Dave Thorpe and Roger De Coster.
