Russian rider, Seva Brylyakov missed the first European round of the MXGP World Championship in Matterley Basin due to passport issues.
However, the JWR Yamaha rider was back in the paddock for Valkenswaard and Arco di Trento to his delight.
It’s his rookie year competing in the MXGP World Championship after ageing out of the MX2 series but he had an impressive second moto in Arco crossing the line in fifteenth.
“After all this struggles I’ve been through this past 11 months and even more with that 2017’s shoulder injury , and work I’ve done – I am super pumped and happy to be back racing ,probably, the hardest motocross competition on this planet and the toughest guys in the world”, said Brylyakov.
“That MXGP class this days is definitely something special! Sure, I obviously wanted, felt and still feeling already at this stage being ready for better races and I kinda proved that to myself in some parts of this race , but this is how it is for the moment and I am looking forward for all the practice and progress I’ll do in this coming months”, Brylyakov added.
