Team HRC ready for 2018 MXGP debut in Argentina
Team HRC is en route to Argentina to take part in the opening event of the 2018 MXGP World Championship season. With Tim Gajser and Brian Bogers making encouraging steps forward in their recovery from injury, all eyes this weekend will be on Calvin Vlaanderen, who will make his official debut with the squad aboard the all-new #honda CRF250RW machine in the MX2 class.
The off season for the 21-year-old South African rider was quite a successful one: after finishing second in the opening MX2 race of the ‘Internazionali d’Italia’ in Riola Sardo, two weeks later Vlaanderen took a dominant win and finished fifth-overall in the MX1/MX2 combined race in Mantova.
The Patagonia Race Track is located near the village of Villa La Angostura in the stunning scenery of the Nahuel Huapi national park, featuring on the MXGP calendar since 2015. With an amazing crowd reception and incredible atmosphere, the event is eagerly-awaited by riders and teams.
On-track action will get underway on Saturday 3rd of March at 10:45 local time (GMT -3) with the first free practice for the MX2 class, while the two races are scheduled at 12:15 and 15:10 on Sunday.
