Positive day for Gasgas Factory Racing at MXGP Round 17

OUR FIM #motocross WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RACERS GET THINGS BACK ON TRACK AT FIRST OF TWO STOPS IN MANTOVA

Bouncing back from some challenging rounds of FIM #motocross World Championship #competition, #gasgas Factory #racing has enjoyed a solid day at the #mxgp of Lombardia. Producing the best overall result for the team was MX2 ace #isakgifting who put together two consistent seventh-place finishes for sixth overall. Simon Langenfelder was also on the pace, securing a sixth-place finish in race two while on his way to ninth overall in MX2. In the #mxgp class, we were a man down as Pauls Jonass’ broken ribs ruled him out of #racing, bringing his 2021 season to an end. Pauls’ teammate #brianbogers toughed it out for 10th overall after returning from illness. 

  • GASGAS Factory #racing enjoys strong results at #mxgp round 17
  • Gifting on the gas as he places sixth overall in the MX2 class
  • Final round set to take place this coming Wednesday in Mantova

Isak Gifting: “The first one at Mantova is done and it’s been a really good day for me. My starts weren’t the best, but I was able to make a lot of passes early in each race, push forward, and stay out of trouble. It’s been a difficult season so to have a good result today is a really positive thing for me and I’m definitely aiming to do the same, or better, on Wednesday.”

Isak’s teammate Simon Langenfelder is a consistent racer with the young German following up his 11th overall last time out in Arco with ninth overall at the #mxgp of Lombardia. If it wasn’t for a first lap crash in race one, which saw the 17-year-old charge from last to 11th, he may well have ended up even higher as in race two he brought his MC 250F home in a strong sixth place.

Returning to action after missing round 16 with illness, #brianbogers converted his two great starts, impressive speed, and never give up attitude, into a strong 10th-place overall result in the #mxgp class. With just one round remaining, the Dutchman lies 12th in the series standings.

Unfortunately for Pauls Jonass, his season has come to a premature end after breaking three ribs just 10 days ago. The super-tough Latvian gave it a go in free practice but was forced to call it a day because of the pain. Certainly not the way it was meant to end, now Jonass can focus on getting himself back to 100% during the off-season.

Simon Langenfelder: “It’s been a pretty decent day for me today despite a crash in the first race. I was able to charge through from last to 11th so that wasn’t so bad, and I felt great on the bike, so I was really looking forward to the second race. I had a good start in that one and then it was just a crazy #moto. #people crashing, getting passed, then passing #people back. It was a lot of fun and awesome to battling like that. The focus is now on Wednesday and finishing the season with another strong result.”

Brian Bogers: “It’s pretty crazy as even on Wednesday this week I couldn’t do anything and then today I’m battling in the top-10 of MXGP! In the first #moto I had a small issue with my suspension so I had to slow down a little, but I bounced back for a solid eighth in race two. Looking ahead to Wednesday and the final round, I want to end the championship with a better result than today, so I’ll be going full gas and looking to end the season on a high.”

Standing Construct #gasgas Factory #racing and DIGA Procross #gasgas Factory #racing will line up for the final round of the FIM #motocross World Championship this coming Wednesday. Returning to the Mantova venue, the 18th and final round will determine the final championship positions for our elite #motocross racers.
