Team HRC left wanting after MXGP of Europe.

Tim Gajser and Evgeny Bobeyshev had a day of changeable fortunes aboard their CRF450RW’s in Valkenswaard and were left reflecting on what could have been.
The first race started well for Gajser who gated in second and was closing the gap between Gautier for the lead. After preparing to make a move on Gautier, Gajser spun out which left him back in sixth place and unable to find his flow. Bobryshev had a much better first race chasing down Gautier after Gajsers mistake. After getting caught in the Dutchman vs Dutchman battle for a podium finish between Van Horbeek and Herlings, Bobby came in a strong fourth place.
Race two it was Bobryshevs turn to gate second and the Russian pulled an early gap with race leader Cairoli. The battle from fifth to third was so intense it meant the group eventually caught up with Bobby who tensed up under the pressure, causing him to drop back to ninth. Gajser didn’t have the start but he persevered through the difficult terrain and pulled back to finish fourth place from seventh.
